style and your goals.
You determine the RPM level where the shiftlights come on,
and you can also enable/disable the shiftlights at will.

horsepower and torque vs. RPMs (p. 72), you may determine

The shiftlights feature can help with this by turning on at an
RPM value you’ve set, so that you shift for optimal power
