SHELBY GT500 INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
Upshift
Illuminates when it is best to shift to the next highest manual
transmission gear to maximize fuel economy.
Multi-shift indicators:
1.
(Upshift): Set for maximum fuel economy
2.SVT: Performance shift indicator
Performance shift indicator
Your vehicle is equipped with a programmable performance shift
indicator. When activated, this feature provides a visual (SHIFTLAMP)
and/or audible (SHIFTTONE) cue to shift to the next highest gear at an
engine rpm specified by the driver.
The SHIFTLAMP feature uses the SVT logo on the tachometer to notify
you when the desired shiftpoint is reached. The SVT symbol is backlit in
red under normal driving conditions (SHIFTLAMP OFF). When the
SHIFTLAMP is set to ON, the red backlighting is turned off and the SVT
logo will turn bright orange when the desired shift point is reached.
The SHIFTTONE feature uses an audible tone to notify you when the
desired shiftpoint is reached.
SHIFTLAMP and SHIFTTONE can be used separately, together, or
turned off completely.
