The invention relates to a kick-down device (1) of an accelerator pedal module of a motor vehicle, which comprises an accelerator pedal (2) which is mounted on a bearing block (3) and which can be adjusted between a normal position and an end position. Said kick-down device (1) comprises a) at least one axially driven actuation element (6) which is arranged in a recess (4) of the accelerator pedal (2) or the bearing block (3) and which comprises at least one active edge (8) and b) a wedge element (12) which comprises a wedge-like surface (14), which is axially guided in the recess (4), which co-operates with the actuation element (6) via at least one rolling body (16) and which is charged by at least one pressure spring (10) and c) a rolling body (16) which can be pressed in an axial manner into a defined point of the actuation element (6) in the recess (4) and can be withdrawn from the transversal recess (18) of the recess (4) in a radial manner by means of said active edge (8) of the at least one rolling body (16) and can be pressed counter to the wedge-like surface (14) of the wedge element (12) by actuating the accelerator pedal (2).
