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 permit.
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 shift light when you downshift.

If your vehicle has four-wheel drive and has a manual
transmission, disregard the shift light when the
transfer case is in four-wheel low.

For more information, see Up-Shift Light (Manual
Transmission)
on page 3-31.

CAUTION:

If you skip a gear when you downshift, you
could lose control of your vehicle. You could
injure yourself or others. Do not shift down
more than one gear at a time when you
downshift.

Full-Time Four-Wheel Drive
