Abstract
In a system for controlling the shifting of an automatic transmission, a selector device is controllable from a 'D' selected position into one of two shift positions for a stepwise shift limitation, by one gear at a time, manually. The respective upshift or downshift limitation can automatically be eliminated by fulfillment of a presettable condition, for example the expiration of a delay period.
