Wiper Blades - Ford Mustang Owner's Manual

Help Us Protect Our Environment
Ford Motor Company strongly recommends that
used lead-acid batteries be returned to an
authorized recycling facility for disposal.

Because your vehicle's engine is electronically
controlled by a computer, some control
conditions are maintained by power from the
battery. If you ever disconnect the battery, install
a new battery, or experience a dead battery, you
must allow the computer to "relearn" its idle
conditions before your vehicle will idle at its
best. To let the engine do this, put the gearshift
in P (Park) (automatic transmission) or Neutral
(manual transmission), turn off all the
accessories, and start the vehicle. Let the engine
idle for at least one minute. (Engine must be
warm in order to "learn.") Also, allow
approximately 10 miles (16 km) of stop and go
traffic for your vehicle's engine to completely
"relearn" its idle.

Wiper Blades

Check the windshield wiper blades at least twice
a year. Also check them whenever they seem
less effective than usual. Substances such as tree
sap and some hot wax treatments used by
commercial car washes reduce the effectiveness
of wiper blades.
