MPH/Tachometer Satellite Indicator?
Hey guys, since the other lexus forum is dead, I'll ask the same question here. Anyways, I have probably a stupid question regarding the MPH/Tachometer satellite indicator switch in the IS350. The button's located to the lower left of the steering wheel and you can adjust this to see the MPH, tachnometer, gas mileage, average miles, etc digitally on the cluster. However, even though I know how to use them, I have no idea what the MPH or the Tachometer indicator is. I read the manual and it gives really brief information about them.
I realize the tachometer indicator is set at around 6k rpm. When I go above that, a nice yellow/orange light goes on on the tachometer. Is this to indicate that you have to shift soon and acts as a shift light??? What does the MPH indicator do?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
