Abstract
A controller has characteristic diagram memories and a fuzzy system which detects operating parameters of a motor vehicle and sets a transmission ratio with the aid of the characteristic diagram memory. A driver inputs plus and minus gear shift instructions via an input device. The driver instructions are evaluated during a driving operation by an adaptation circuit, and the shifting behavior of a transmission is adapted to a desired shifting behavior.
