Up-Shift Light
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 light when you downshift.
If you have a manual
transmission, you may
have an up-shift light.
This light will show you
when to shift to the
next higher gear for the
best fuel economy.
