2022 FORD MUSTANG brakes

•
Follow the recommended maintenance
schedule and carry out the
recommended checks.
• Plan your journey and check the traffic
before you set off. It is more efficient
to combine errands into a single trip
whenever possible.
• Avoid idling the engine in cold weather
or for extended periods. Start the
engine only when you are ready to set
off.
• Do not carry unnecessary weight in your
vehicle as extra weight wastes fuel.
• Do not add unnecessary accessories
to the exterior of your vehicle, for
example running boards. If you use a
roof rack, remember to fold it down or
remove it when not in use.
• Do not shift into neutral when you are
braking or when your vehicle is slowing
down.
• Shut all windows when driving at high
speeds.
• Switch off all electric systems when
not in use, for example air conditioning.
Make sure that you unplug any
accessories from the auxiliary power
points when not in use.
DRIVING THROUGH SHALLOW
WATER WARNING: Do not attempt to
cross a deep or flowing body of water.
Failure to follow this instruction could
result in the loss of control of your
vehicle, personal injury or death.
Note: Driving through standing water can
cause vehicle damage.
Note: Engine damage can occur if water
enters the air filter. Before driving through standing water,
check the depth. Never drive through water
that is higher than the bottom of the front
rocker area of your vehicle.
When driving through standing water, drive
very slowly and do not stop your vehicle.
Your brake performance and traction could
be limited. After driving through water and
as soon as it is safe to do so:
•
Lightly press the brake pedal to dry the
brakes and to check that they work.
• Turn the steering wheel to check that
the steering power assist works.
Check the function of the following:
• Horn
• Exterior lights
FLOOR MATS WARNING: Use a floor mat
designed to fit the footwell of your
vehicle that does not obstruct the pedal
area. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in the loss of control of your
vehicle, personal injury or death. WARNING:
Pedals that cannot
move freely can cause loss of vehicle
control and increase the risk of serious
personal injury.

Line Lock
Line lock is a feature intended for use at
tracks only and should not be used on
public roadways. Use of this feature may
result in significantly increased rear tire
wear. It is intended to condition the rear
tires to maximize traction prior to track use.
Line lock maintains brake force at the front
wheels, allowing the rear wheels to spin
with minimal vehicle movement.
This feature is located in the Track Apps
menu. Make selections through the 5-way
information display control and OK button
located on the steering wheel.
Using Line Lock
There are three line lock stages:
•
Initiated.
• Engaged.
• Off.
Initiating Line Lock
The initiation stage verifies that the vehicle
is ready for line lock function, and confirms
driver intent. Follow the prompts in the
information display to initiate line lock.
The following conditions must be met to
initialize line lock:
• The vehicle is on a level surface.
• The engine is running.
• The vehicle is traveling less than
25 mph (40 km/h).
• Selectable drive mode is not in wet
mode (if equipped).
• There are no electronic stability control
faults. If you want to cancel line lock once it is
initialized, press the left information
display control. Once initiated, line lock is
prepared for activation and remains
initiated up to 25 mph (40 km/h). If vehicle
speed exceeds 25 mph (40 km/h), line lock
automatically cancels.
Engaging Line Lock
Follow the prompts in the information
display to engage line lock after it is
initialized. To engage, firmly apply the
brakes. Then press the OK button. Once
engaged, release the brake pedal. The
front brakes remain applied and the rear
brakes release. At this point, the
engagement timer is initiated and shown
on the driver information display.
The following conditions must be met to
engage line lock:
•
The vehicle is on a level surface.
• The engine is running.
• The vehicle is stopped.
• The parking brake is not applied.
• The driver door is closed.
• The transmission is in a forward gear.
• Selectable drive mode is not in wet
mode (if equipped).
• There are no electronic stability control
faults.
• The steering wheel must be in the
straight ahead position.
Releasing Line Lock
While line lock is engaged, you can exit
(release) the feature using the OK button.
When you press the OK button, line lock
releases immediately and normal vehicle
function resumes. When line lock engages,
a countdown timer shows the remaining

Note:
The Gurney flap comes with longer
size bolts to install it onto the rear spoiler.
Do not use the longer size bolts without
the Gurney flap attached or damage to
the spoiler may occur.
Brake Burnishing
The brakes should be properly burnished
prior to heavy track use. Excessive brake
noise may occur after the track burnish or
track use. Perform this procedure in a safe
manner on dry pavement, and in
compliance with all local and state
ordinances and laws regarding motor
vehicle operation. How to Burnish the Brakes
Initial low temperature bedding:
•
If your brakes already have 200 mi
(322 km) or more of city driving, skip
this step and go directly to the high
temperature bedding cycle procedure.
Otherwise, perform at least 30 stops
from
50 mph (80 km/h) at 1/3 g
deceleration with 1 mi (1.2 km) spacing
between stops. A deceleration gauge
can be accessed through the
TrackApps menu in your information
display.
High temperature bedding cycle:
• Beginning with cool brakes, perform 15
consecutive stops back to back,
accelerating at 3/4 throttle to
80 mph
(128 km/h) and braking to 20 mph
(32 km/h) at 1.0 g deceleration. The
brakes may omit an odor or smoke
during this part of the procedure.
Cool down:
• Cool the brakes down by driving one or
two laps, 5 mi (8 km)
, at 60 mph
(96 km/h) with minimal to no brake
usage.
Recovery low temperature bedding:
• Perform at least 30 stops from 50 mph
(80 km/h)
at 1/3 g deceleration with
0.7 mi (1.2 km) spacing between stops.
A deceleration gauge can be accessed
through the TrackApps menu in your
information display.

Releasing Line Lock
While line lock is engaged, you can exit
(release) the feature using the OK button.
When you press the OK button, line lock
releases immediately and normal vehicle
function resumes. When line lock engages,
a countdown timer shows the remaining
time before line lock is released
automatically. If you exceed the time limit,
or another vehicle condition requires line
lock to release, the system safely
disengages and normal vehicle function
resumes.
Note: If you apply the brake pedal while
line lock is engaged, line lock automatically
cancels and normal brake function resumes.
Performance Shift Indicator
The performance shift indicator displays
a row of colored lights that represent
engine RPM.
The performance shift indicator menu
allows you to:
• Choose whether the indicator is shown
on the windshield or information
display.
• Set a shift point within the allowable
RPM range in increments of 100.
• Enable or disable the associated shift
tone, based on the set shift point.
• Set the between off, change with drive
mode, tach, track and drag.
• Set the light intensity. The intensity
adjusts between day time and night
time.

Rear Gurney Flap
The rear Gurney flap must be removed
for on-road driving.
Your vehicle may include a removable
Gurney flap in the luggage compartment.
The Gurney flap greatly enhances high
speed stability and performance on the
track. It is recommended that you use the
Gurney flap at all tracks featuring high
speed corners and can be used at any track
regardless of cornering speeds.
You could benefit from the removal Gurney
flap to improve low speed balance on
smaller tracks with maximum cornering
speeds below 70 mph (112 km/h). We
recommend that you attach the Gurney
flap for all track events and carefully
assess both the vehicle's condition and
your capability before removal. Note:
The Gurney flap comes with longer
size bolts to install it onto the rear spoiler.
Do not use the longer size bolts without
the Gurney flap attached or damage to
the spoiler may occur.
Catch Can
If you plan to track your vehicle and it did
not come with an oil catch can, we
recommend that you purchase the catch
can kit though your authorized dealer or
Ford Performance Parts Catalog.
Installation instructions are included with
the catch can.
The catch can has a self-draining feature
and does not require any maintenance.
Brake Burnishing
The brakes should be properly burnished
prior to heavy track use. Excessive brake
noise may occur after the track burnish or
track use. Perform this procedure in a safe
manner on dry pavement, and in
compliance with all local and state
ordinances and laws regarding motor
vehicle operation.
