Transmission -> Manual Transmission for Your Ford Mustang 2 Door Sixth Generation (2015-2023)

MANUAL TRANSMISSION (If
Equipped)
Using the Clutch
Note: Failure to fully press the clutch pedal
to the floor may cause increased shift
efforts, prematurely wear transmission
components or damage the transmission.
Note: Do not drive with your foot resting
on the clutch pedal or use the clutch pedal
to hold your vehicle at a standstill when
waiting on a hill. These actions can reduce
the life of the clutch and could nullify a
clutch warranty claim.
E144954
Manual transmission vehicles have a
starter interlock that prevents cranking the
engine unless the clutch pedal is fully
pressed.
To start the vehicle:
1. Make sure the parking brake is fully set.
2. Press the clutch pedal to the floor, then
put the gearshift lever in the neutral
position.
3. Start the engine.
4. Press the brake pedal and move the
gearshift lever to the desired gear; first
(1) or reverse (R).
5. Release the parking brake, then slowly
release the clutch pedal when slowly
pressing on the accelerator.
During each shift, the clutch pedal must
be fully pressed to the floor. Make sure the
floor mat is properly positioned so it
doesn't interfere with the full extension of
the clutch pedal.
Recommended Shift Speeds
Note: Do not downshift into first (1) when
your vehicle is moving faster than 24 km/h.
This can damage the clutch.

Transmission
Note: Optimal fuel consumption figures are
achieved using second gear to pull away
from a stationary position when on level
ground. On vehicles with manual
transmission, we recommend you use
second gear to pull away from a stationary
position when on level ground.
Reverse
Note: Make sure that your vehicle is at a
complete stop before you shift into reverse
(R). Failure to do so may damage the
transmission.
1. Press the clutch pedal to the floor to
disengage clutch.
2. Shift into reverse (R) by raising the
collar below the gearshift knob up, then
moving the lever fully to the left, then
forward.
E99067
Note: The gearshift lever can only be
moved to reverse (R) by raising the collar
below the gearshift knob up before shifting
to reverse. This is a lockout feature which
protects the transmission from accidentally
engaging reverse (R) when intending to
select first (1).
If reverse (R) is not fully engaged, press
the clutch pedal down and return the
gearshift to the neutral 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 parking brake fully
and make sure you shift the gearshift
lever to first gear. Switch the ignition
off and remove the key whenever you leave
your vehicle.
To park your vehicle:
1. Apply the brake and shift into the
neutral position.
2. Fully apply the parking brake, hold the
clutch pedal down, then shift into first
(1).
3. Turn the ignition off.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
(If Equipped)
WARNINGS
Always fully apply the parking brake
and make sure you shift into park (P).
Failure to follow this instruction
could result in personal injury or death.
Do not apply the brake pedal and
accelerator pedal simultaneously.
Applying both pedals simultaneously
for more than a few seconds will limit
engine performance, which may result in
difficulty maintaining speed in traffic and
could lead to serious injury.
Note: You may not be able to shift out of
park (P) unless the intelligent access key is
inside your vehicle.
Understanding the Positions of
Your Automatic Transmission
Putting your vehicle in gear:
1. Fully press down on the brake pedal.
