GAUGES Tachometer (Revolutions per minute) A Information display B Speedometer (Ground speed) C Fuel gauge D Engine coolant temperature gauge E Information Display Odometer Located in the bottom of the information display. Registers the accumulated distance your vehicle has traveled. Trip Computer See (page 67). Vehicle Settings and Personalization See (page 67). 61 Mustang (CZG) Vehicles Built From: 13-07-2015, GR3J 19A321 AKA enGBR, Edition date: 06/2015, First Printing Instrument ClusterE174486
Fuel Gauge Note: The fuel gauge may vary slightly when your vehicle is moving or on a gradient. Switch the ignition on. The fuel gauge will indicate approximately how much fuel is left in the fuel tank. The arrow adjacent to the fuel pump symbol indicates on which side of your vehicle the fuel filler door is located. The needle should move toward F when you refuel your vehicle. If the needle points to E after adding fuel, this indicates your vehicle needs service soon. After refueling some variability in needle position is normal: • It may take a short time for the needle to reach F after leaving the gas station. This is normal and depends upon the slope of pavement at the gas station. • The fuel amount dispensed into the tank is a little less or more than the gauge indicated. This is normal and depends upon the slope of pavement at the gas station. • If the gas station nozzle shuts off before the tank is full, try a different gas pump nozzle. Low Fuel Reminder A low fuel reminder triggers when the distance to empty value reaches 80 km (50 mi) to empty, with additional warnings at 40 km (25 mi), 20 km (10 mi) and 0 km (0 mi) to empty, provided the message is cleared each time. An additional warning at 120 km (75 mi) to empty is provided when the MyKey is being used. Variations: Note: The low fuel warning and distance-to-empty warning can appear at different fuel gauge positions depending on fuel economy conditions. This variation is normal. Fuel gauge position Distance-to-empty Driving type (fuel economy conditions) 1/8th tank 80 km (50 mi) Highway driving 1/4 tank 80 km (50 mi) Severe duty driving (trailer towing, extended idle) Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge WARNING Never remove the coolant reservoir cap while the engine is running or hot. Indicates engine coolant temperature. At normal operating temperature, the level indicator will be in the normal range. If the engine coolant temperature exceeds the normal range, stop your vehicle as soon as safely possible, switch off the engine and let it cool. 62 Mustang (CZG) Vehicles Built From: 13-07-2015, GR3J 19A321 AKA enGBR, Edition date: 06/2015, First Printing Instrument Cluster

Service Engine Soon If the service engine soon indicator light stays illuminated after the engine is started, it indicates that the On Board Diagnostics system (OBD) has detected a malfunction of the vehicle emissions control system. Refer to On board diagnostics (OBD) in the Fuel and Refueling chapter for more information about having your vehicle serviced. If the light is blinking, engine misfire is occurring which could damage your catalytic converter. Drive in a moderate fashion (avoid heavy acceleration and deceleration) and have your vehicle serviced immediately. WARNING Under engine misfire conditions, excessive exhaust temperatures could damage the catalytic converter, the fuel system, interior floor coverings or other vehicle components, possibly causing a fire. Have an authorized dealer service your vehicle immediately. The service engine soon indicator light illuminates when the ignition is first turned on prior to engine start to check the bulb and to indicate whether the vehicle is ready for Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) testing. Normally, the service engine soon light will stay on until the engine is cranked, then turn itself off if no malfunctions are present. However, if after 15 seconds the service engine soon light blinks eight times, it means that the vehicle is not ready for I/M testing. Stability Control It will flash when the system is active. If it remains illuminated or does not illuminate when you switch the ignition on, this indicates a malfunction. During a malfunction the system will switch off.
