Performance Gear Shift Lighting
This feature allows the driver to see
the optimum upshift gear change
points to ensure that the engine and
transmission provide the maximum
acceleration possible in every gear as
well as warning the driver if the engine
speed becomes too high.
NOTE: For automatic transmission
models, this option is only available
with manual mode selected.
For information on the gear shift
indicator for improved fuel economy,
see page 75.
Upshift Indication Points
As engine speed increases and reaches
the first shift level point, the upper
drive mode indicator lines change to
performance shift lighting, turning
white in color.
If engine speed continues to increase
whilst remaining in the same gear,
the second shift level will be reached,
illuminating the outer shift blocks.
Continued increase in engine speed
whilst remaining in the same gear will
illuminate the third, inner level shift
blocks.
The performance shift lines and shift
blocks will slowly flash and
SHIFT
will be
displayed as engine speed continues to
increase, indicating to the driver that
the ideal shifting point has now been
reached.
