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.

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.

You should:
•
Remove dust and loose dirt with a
vacuum cleaner.
• Clean and treat spills and stains as
soon as possible.
Do not use the following products as these
may damage the leather:
• Oil and petroleum or silicone-based
leather conditioners.
• Household cleaners.
• Alcohol solutions.
• Solvents or cleaners intended
specifically for rubber, vinyl and
plastics.
REPAIRING MINOR PAINT
DAMAGE
Authorized dealers have touch-up paint to
match your vehicle ’s color. Your vehicle
color code is printed on a sticker on the
front, left-hand side door jamb. Take your
color code to your authorized dealer to
make sure you get the correct color.
Before repairing minor paint damage, use
a cleaner to remove particles such as bird
droppings, tree sap, insect deposits, tar
spots, road salt and industrial fallout.
Read the instructions before using cleaning
products.
CLEANING THE WHEELS
1. Regularly clean them with a wheel cleaner. We recommend that you use
Ford approved wheel cleaner if
available.
2. Remove dirt and brake dust with a sponge. 3.
Remove tar and grease with a bug and
tar remover. We recommend that you
use Ford approved bug and tar remover
if available.
4. Thoroughly rinse the wheels with water
after cleaning.
If you intend on parking your vehicle for an
extended period after cleaning the wheels
with a wheel cleaner, drive your vehicle for
a few minutes before doing so. This
reduces the risk of corrosion of the brake
discs, brake pads and linings.
Do not clean the wheels when they are hot.
Note: Some car washes could damage
wheel rims and covers.
Note: Using non-recommended cleaners,
harsh cleaning products, chrome wheel
cleaners or abrasive materials could
damage wheel rims and covers.
VEHICLE STORAGE
If you plan on storing your vehicle for 30
days or more, read the following
maintenance recommendations to make
sure your vehicle stays in good operating
condition.
We engineer and test all motor vehicles
and their components for reliable, regular
driving. Under various conditions,
long-term storage may lead to degraded
engine performance or failure unless you
use specific precautions to preserve engine
components.
General
• Store all vehicles in a dry, ventilated
place.
• Protect from sunlight, if possible.
• If vehicles are stored outside, they
require regular maintenance to protect
against rust and damage.

Confirm that there are no cooling
system leaks and that fluid is at the
recommended level.
Disconnecting Your 12 Volt Battery
• Check and recharge as necessary. Keep
connections clean.
• If storing your vehicle for more than 30
days without recharging the battery,
we recommend that you disconnect
the battery cables to maintain battery
charge for quick starting.
Note: It is necessary to reset memory
features if you disconnect the battery
cables.
Brakes
• Make sure the brakes and parking brake
release fully.
Tires
• Maintain recommended air pressure.
Miscellaneous
• Make sure all linkages, cables, levers
and pins under your vehicle are covered
with grease to prevent rust.
• Move vehicles at least 25 ft (7.5 m)
every 15 days to lubricate working parts
and prevent corrosion.

Removing Vehicle From Storage
When your vehicle is ready to come out of
storage, do the following:
•
Wash your vehicle to remove any dirt
or grease film build-up on window
surfaces.
• Check windshield wipers for any
deterioration.
• Check under the hood for any foreign
material that may have collected
during storage such as mice or squirrel
nests.
• Check the exhaust for any foreign
material that may have collected
during storage.
• Check tire pressures and set tire
inflation per the Tire Label.
• Check brake pedal operation. Drive
your vehicle 15 ft (4.5 m) back and
forth to remove rust build-up.
• Check fluid levels (including coolant,
oil and gas) to make sure there are no
leaks, and fluids are at recommended
levels.
• If you remove the battery, clean the
battery cable ends and check for
damage.
Contact an authorized dealer if you have
any concerns or issues.
CLEANING THE CONVERTIBLE
TOP

Remove lint with a lint roller or a vacuum
with a soft bristle brush.
For cloth and vinyl tops, wash with an
approved high-quality convertible top
cleaner and protectant.

abrasive materials or household cleaning
products. Note:
High-pressure water may cause
water leaks and possible seal damage to
the convertible top.
Note: Do not fold the convertible top when
it is wet.
Note: Avoid hot wax on vinyl materials
during car washes.
BODY STYLING KITS
The distance between the underside of
your vehicle and the ground is less than
that of other models. Drive with extreme
care to avoid damage to your vehicle.
