Abstract

A hydraulically actuatable shift element () includes a clutch piston (), a fast fill piston (), a fast fill valve (), a fast fill pressure chamber (), and a clutch pressure chamber (). The fast fill valve () includes a sealing body () and a control body (). Before the actuation of the shift element (), the sealing body () is in a first switching position, in which the fast fill pressure chamber () is connected to a pressurized oil source () and, after the actuation of the shift element () in a second switching position, seals off the fast fill pressure chamber () with respect to the rest of the hydraulic system. The control body () has a first pressure surface (A) and a second pressure surface (A), wherein, in the first switching position, only the first pressure surface (A) is pressurizable from the pressurized oil source (). The fast fill valve () is configured such that, in the second switching position or between the first switching position and the second switching position of the control body (), the second pressure surface (A), in addition to the first pressure surface (A), is pressurizable.
