As codesplice mentioned this is a efficiency shift light. It's trying to help you get the best MPG. Like always with driving a car use your best judgement. If your RPM's are low and you need to get over a lane in front of someone you won't be in the best position to do so. Their will be times when that suggested RPM level is lower then what you want to be in.
