Paddle Shifting Question

I havent really played with the paddles yet too much kind of waiting till the engine break in is done, but the dealer told me you dont need to take your foot off the gas when shifting. I bet the owner's manual might say something about this for a better answer.

Actually I looked and to my surprise it didn't seem to address the point---unless I overlooked it. But the responses indicate that you keep your food on the accelerator through the upshifts.
