downshift, you could lose control of your vehicle.

Up-Shift Light (Manual Transaxle)
il
SHIFT
If you have
a
manual
transaxle, you have an
UP-SHIFT light. This light
will show you when to shift
to the next higher gear for
best fuel economy.
When this light comes on, you can shift to the next
higher gear if weather, road and traffic conditions let
you. For the best fuel economy, accelerate slowly
and
shift when the light comes on.
While you accelerate, it is normal for the light to go
on and off if you quickly change the position of
the accelerator. Ignore the UP-SHIFT light when
you downshift.
