Manual control device for vehicular automatic transmission

摘要

A shift control system is arranged such that a shift lever 201 is movable to a "P" position, an "R" position, an "N" position, a "D5" position and a "D4" position along a first shift guide path 211, it is movable also from the "D4" position to a "3/M" position along a connection shift guide path 212, and it is movable also along a second shift guide path 213, from the "3/M" position into a direction different from that of the connection shift guide path 212. When the shift lever is shifted to the "D5" position, the transmission is set into an automatic shift control with forward drive speed ratios up to the FIFTH speed ratio. When the shift lever is shifted to the "D4" position, the transmission is set into an automatic shift control with forward drive speed ratios up to the FOURTH speed ratio. When the shift lever is shifted from the "D4" position to the "3/M" position along the connection shift guide path 212, the transmission is set into a "3" range, where an automatic shift control is executed with forward drive speed ratios up to the THIRD speed ratio. Then, the shift lever at the "3/M" position is swiveled along the second shift guide path 213 to shift the speed ratio of the transmission manually in steps.
