A second pulley ratio is set at a value higher than a first pulley ratio for a gear-neutral state. In a region below the second pulley ratio, a movable sheave of a primary pulley is moved to an O/D side. The amount of the movement is detected by a sensor shoe (detecting means) which is associated with the movable sheave. A ratio sensing valve (inhibition means) associated with the sensor shoe, in turn, clogs a port, halting a hydraulic pressure supplied by a primary regulator valve. As a result, no hydraulic pressure is supplied to the second hydraulic chamber by way of a down-shift relief valve, a manual valve or a low-high control valve, inhibiting a down shift. <IMAGE> |
