Abstract

A multi-stage gearbox has at least one shifter rod which may be engaged and locked in a predetermined position by at least one locking element. The locking element is coupled to a setting element such that the setting element can be set in at least two different positions relative to the locking element by a control device. A method of controlling such a gearbox includes the step of moving the setting element from a retention position into a shift position by actuating a push-button.
