2023 FORD MUSTANG ABS

tighter emissions standards, and saw anincrease to 139 horsepower – nearly equalto the ’73’s standard V-8 power level. TheMach 1’s optional Competition Suspensionpackage offered stiffer springs, adjustableshock absorbers and fatter front and rearstabilizer bars to improve handling, andkept it a popular enthusiast choice over allfive years of Mustang II's production. Bythe dawn of the third-generation Mustang,the Mach name would not return again tothe Mustang line until some 25 years later.
After the 1979-93 Fox Body Mustang yearshad come and gone with the reintroductionof a GT model, new sheet metal on arevamped SN-95 platform helped torekindle consumer interest in afourth-generation Ford Mustang.Enthusiasts lavished their attention uponthe 1993-1999 Mustang Cobraperformance model developed by the FordSpecial Vehicle Team skunkworks group,while Ford engineers looked to specialtymodels to fill the mid-market slot betweenthe standard Mustang GT and theupmarket Cobra.
After the success of the 2001 Bullitt, anew-for-2003 Mach 1 was launched tooffer fans some design cues from its '69namesake, including a blackout hood,black front air-dam extension and reardecklid spoiler – even bodyside scoops. Tomatch its aggressive look and hardwareupgrades, the '03 Mach 1 was powered bya 305-horsepower, 4.6L DOHC modularV-8. Unlike the SVT Cobra, the Mach 1offered an automatic transmission optionin lieu of the manual, and consequentlydrew a new group of enthusiast buyers intothe Ford fold. The strong customerresponse prompted another year of Mach1 production for 2004, the Mustang's finalyear on the fourth-gen platform.
Thanks to a popular mix of appearance,features and power, the 1969-73 Mach 1'sproved to be everyman's muscle car, andhave earned a respected place in Mustangperformance lore. Beyond those classicyears, the Mach 1 carried over for all fiveyears of the often overlooked 1974-78'sbefore a hiatus that ended with themodern and muscular 2003-04's. Mach1’s return to the Mustang lineup for 2021will add a new chapter on modern-daymuscle for this beloved model, and willcement its rightful place near the very topof Mustang performance history.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Do not overfill the fueltank. The pressure in an overfilled tankmay cause leakage and lead to fuel sprayand fire.
WARNING: The fuel system maybe under pressure. If you hear a hissingsound near the fuel filler inlet, do notrefuel until the sound stops. Otherwise,fuel may spray out, which could causeserious personal injury.
WARNING: Fuels can cause seriousinjury or death if misused or mishandled.
WARNING: Fuel may containbenzene, which is a cancer-causingagent.
WARNING: When refueling alwaysshut the engine off and never allowsparks or open flames near the fuel tankfiller valve. Never smoke or use a cellphone while refueling. Fuel vapor isextremely hazardous under certainconditions. Avoid inhaling excess fumes.
Follow these guidelines when refueling:
•Extinguish all smoking materials andany open flames before refueling yourvehicle.
•Always switch the engine off beforerefueling.
•Automotive fuels can be harmful orfatal if swallowed. Fuel is highly toxicand if swallowed can cause death orpermanent injury. If fuel is swallowedimmediately call a physician, even if nosymptoms are immediately apparent.The toxic effects of fuel may not beapparent for hours.
•Avoid inhaling fuel vapors. Inhaling fuelvapor can lead to eye and respiratorytract irritation. In severe cases,excessive or prolonged breathing offuel vapor can cause serious illness andpermanent injury.
•Avoid getting fuel in your eyes. If yousplash fuel in your eyes, immediatelyremove contact lenses (if worn), flushwith water for 15 minutes and seekmedical attention. Failure to seekproper medical attention could lead topermanent injury.

The floor covering andinsulation protect occupants of thevehicle from the engine and exhaustsystem heat and noise. On vehicles withno original equipment floor coveringinsulation, do not carry passengers in amanner that permits prolonged skincontact with the metal floor. Failure tofollow these instructions may result infire or personal injury.
U.S. federal laws and certain state lawsprohibit removing or rendering inoperativeemission control system components.Similar federal or provincial laws mayapply in Canada. We do not approve of anyvehicle modification without firstdetermining applicable laws.
Tampering with emissionscontrol systems includingrelated sensors can result inreduced engine power and the illuminationof the service engine soon light.
Tampering With a Noise ControlSystem
Federal laws prohibit the following acts:
•Removal or rendering inoperative byany person other than for purposes ofmaintenance.
•Repair or replacement of any device orelement of the design incorporated intoa new vehicle for the purpose of noisecontrol prior to its sale or delivery tothe ultimate purchaser or while it is inuse.
•The use of the vehicle after any personremoves or renders inoperative anydevice or element of the design.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agencymay presume to constitute tampering asfollows:
•Removal of hood blanket, fender apronabsorbers, fender apron barriers,underbody noise shields or acousticallyabsorptive material.
•Tampering or rendering inoperative theengine speed governor, to allow enginespeed to exceed manufacturerspecifications.
If the engine does not start, runs rough,experiences a decrease in engineperformance, experiences excess fuelconsumption or produces excessiveexhaust smoke, check for the following:
•A plugged or disconnected air inletsystem hose.
•A plugged engine air filter element.
•A clogged fuel filter.
•Contaminated fuel.
•Air in the fuel system, due to looseconnections.
•Fuel system leaks, due to looseconnections.
•An open or pinched sensor hose.

When you switch off the system, the lanemarking graphics do not display.
When the system is on, the color of thelane markings changes to indicate thesystem status.
Gray: Indicates that the system istemporarily unable to provide a warningor intervention on the indicated side. Thismay be because:
•Your vehicle is under the activationspeed.
•The direction indicator is active.
•Your vehicle is in a dynamic maneuver.
•The road has no or poor lane markingsin the camera field-of-view.
•You have a blocked camera, or it isunable to detect the lane markings dueto environmental, traffic or vehicleconditions. For example, significant sunangles, shadows, snow, heavy rain orfog, following a large vehicle that isblocking or shadowing the lane or poorheadlamp illumination.
See Troubleshooting for additionalinformation.
Green: Indicates that the system isavailable or ready to provide a warning orintervention, on the indicated side.
Yellow or Animated Graphics: Indicate thatthe system is providing or has just provideda lane keeping aid intervention.
Red: Indicates that the system is providingor has just provided a lane keeping alertwarning.
You can temporarily suppress the systemat any time by the following:
•Quick braking.
•Fast acceleration.
•Using the direction indicator.
•Evasive steering maneuver.
•Driving too close to the lane markings.
Troubleshooting
Why is the feature not available (line markings are gray) when I can see the lane markingson the road?
Your vehicle speed is outside the operational range of the feature.
The sun is shining directly into the camera lens.
A quick intentional lane change has occurred.
Your vehicle stays too close to the lane markings.
Driving at high speeds in curves.
The last alert warning or aid intervention occurred a short time ago.
Ambiguous lane markings, for example in construction zones.
Rapid transition from light to dark, or from dark to light.
Sudden offset in lane markings.
ABS or AdvanceTrac™ is active.
