2023 FORD MUSTANG clutch

Reverse (R)
Note:Make sure that your vehicle is at acomplete stop before you shift into reverse(R). Failure to do so could damage thetransmission.
1.Press the clutch pedal to the floor todisengage clutch.
2.Shift into reverse (R) by raising thecollar below the gearshift knob up, thenmoving the lever fully to the left, thenforward.
Note:The gearshift lever can only bemoved to reverse (R) by raising the collarbelow the gearshift knob up before shiftingto reverse (R). This is a lockout featurewhich protects the transmission fromaccidentally engaging reverse (R) whenintending to select first (1).
If reverse (R) is not fully engaged, pressthe clutch pedal down and return thegearshift to the neutral (N) position.Release the clutch pedal for a moment,then raise the collar and shift to reverse(R) again.
Parking Your Vehicle
WARNING: Always set the parkingbrake fully and make sure you shift thegearshift lever to first gear. Switch theignition off and remove the key wheneveryou leave your vehicle.
To park your vehicle:
1.Apply the brake and shift into theneutral (N) position.
2.Fully apply the parking brake, hold theclutch pedal down, then shift into first(1).
3.Turn the ignition off.
After you have turned the engine off, youcan release the clutch pedal.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
(IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING: Always fully apply theparking brake and make sure you shiftinto park (P). Failure to follow thisinstruction could result in personal injuryor death.
WARNING: Do not apply the brakepedal and accelerator pedalsimultaneously. Applying both pedalssimultaneously for more than a fewseconds will limit engine performance,which may result in difficulty maintainingspeed in traffic and could lead to seriousinjury.
WARNING: When your vehicle isstationary, keep the brake pedal fullypressed when shifting gears. Failure tofollow this instruction could result inpersonal injury, death or propertydamage.

When you press the accelerator pedal, youoverride the set speed and gap distance.
When you override the system,the green indicator lightilluminates and the vehicleimage does not appear in the informationdisplay.
The system resumes operation when yourelease the accelerator pedal. The vehiclespeed decreases to the set speed, or alower speed if following a slower vehicle.
Changing the Set Speed
Press and release the button toincrease the set speed in smallincrements. Press and hold thebutton to increase the set speed in largeincrements. Release the button when theset speed is equal to your desired speed.
Press and release the button todecrease the set speed in smallincrements. Press and hold thebutton to decrease the set speed in largeincrements. Release the button when theset speed is equal to your desired speed.
You can use the accelerator or brake pedalto adjust the set speed. Press either buttonto set the speed.
The system may apply the brakes to slowthe vehicle to the new set speed. The setspeed displays continuously in theinformation display when the system isactive.
Canceling the Set Speed
Press and release the button.The set speed does not erase.
Note:For vehicles with manualtransmission, if you press the clutch pedalfor an extended period, this action alsocancels the set speed.
Resuming the Set Speed
Press and release the button.Your vehicle speed returns to thepreviously set speed and gapsetting. The set speed displayscontinuously in the information displaywhen the system is active.
Note:Only use resume if you are aware ofthe set speed and intend to return to it.
Automatic Cancellation
The system does not operate below12 mph (20 km/h).
Note:If the engine speed drops too low, anaudible warning sounds and a messageappears in the information display.Automatic braking releases.
Hilly Condition Usage
Select a lower gear when the system isactive in situations such as prolongeddownhill driving on steep slopes, forexample in mountainous areas. Thesystem needs additional engine braking inthese situations to reduce the load on thevehicle’s regular brake system to preventit from overheating.
Note:An audible alarm sounds and thesystem shuts down if it applies brakes foran extended period of time. This allows thebrakes to cool. The system functionsnormally again after the brakes cool.
Switching Adaptive Cruise ControlOff
Press and release OFF, or on vehicles withspeed limiter, the speedometer icon whenthe system is in standby mode to switchthe system off.
Note:You erase the set speed and gapsetting when you switch the system off.

No Lift Shift (If Equipped)
This feature provides you with the abilityto keep the accelerator pedal firmlypressed down during high engine speed,wide open throttle accelerations. Duringwide open throttle gear shifts, the enginecontroller prevents the engine speed fromflaring with the clutch disengaged duringa rapid upshift. This allows reducedmanual transmission upshift time, resultingin quicker acceleration and smoother nolift shifts.
DRIVE CONTROL (IF EQUIPPED)
Selectable Drive Modes (If Equipped)
Selectable drive modes deliver acustomized driving experience using avariety of electronic vehicle systems. Thesystems optimize vehicle dynamics andpowertrain response based on yourselected mode. Systems associated withselectable drive modes are:
•Electronically power assisted steering.See Steering (page 202).
•Electronic stability control and tractioncontrol maintain your vehicle controlin adverse conditions or highperformance driving. See StabilityControl (page 175).
•Electronic throttle control enhancesthe powertrain response to your drivinginput.
•Adaptive dampers (if equipped).
•Active exhaust adjusts the soundcharacteristics of your vehicle (ifequipped).
Using Selectable Drive Modes
Note:Your vehicle may have some of thedrive modes that follow.
To change the drive mode setting, pressthe mode button on the instrument panelunder the display. The first pressilluminates the selected mode, subsequentpresses change the selected mode.
Note:Mode changes are not available whenthe ignition is off or when the transmissionis in reverse (R). Some modes may beunavailable when the transmission is in drive(D) or sport (S).
Modes:
•Normal – Best suited for everydaydriving. If your vehicle has adaptivedampers, the suspension delivers abalanced combination of comfort andhandling. Selectable steering defaultsto normal but can be changed usingthe steering button.
•Sport – Engages when you shift yourautomatic transmission into sport (S).Sport mode increases throttleresponse and helps your vehicleaccelerate faster, but does not changethe vehicle dynamics or stabilitysystem.
•Sport+ – Best suited for spirited driving.This mode increases throttle response,and if your vehicle has active exhaust,it takes on a more powerful tone. If yourvehicle has adaptive dampers, thesuspension becomes stiffer, body

You may notice a reduction in vehiclespeed caused by reduced engine power inorder to manage the engine coolanttemperature. Your vehicle may enter thismode if certain high-temperature andhigh-load conditions take place. Theamount of speed reduction depends onvehicle loading, grade and ambienttemperature. If this occurs, there is noneed to stop your vehicle. You cancontinue to drive.
The air conditioning may automaticallyturn on and off during severe operatingconditions to protect the engine fromoverheating. When the coolanttemperature decreases to the normaloperating temperature, the air conditioningturns on.
If the coolant temperature gauge movesfully into the red zone, or if the coolanttemperature warning or service enginesoon messages appear in your informationdisplay, do the following:
1.Stop your vehicle as soon as it is safeto do so. Fully apply the parking brake,shift into park (P) or neutral (N).
2.Leave the engine running until thecoolant temperature gauge needlereturns to the normal position. If thetemperature does not drop afterseveral minutes, follow the remainingsteps.
3.Switch the engine off and wait for it tocool. Check the coolant level.
4.If the coolant level is at or below theminimum mark, add prediluted coolantimmediately.
5.If the coolant level is normal, restartthe engine and continue.
