Abstract
A shift control device for a continuously-variable transmission has operation condition detecting means, which detect the operation conditions of a vehicle, a control means, which controls the transmission ratio of the continuously-variable transmission based on the operation conditions, an acceleration demand identifying means, which identifies whether acceleration is demanded by the driver, a linear mode setting means, which, based on the demand for acceleration, sets a linear mode, which provides the transmission ratio such that the input revolution speed of the continuously-variable transmission becomes high compared to a normal mode at the same vehicle speed, a front/rear G detecting means, which detects the front/rear G of the vehicle, and a linear mode cancelling means, which, when it is identified that acceleration is not demanded based on the front/rear G during drive in the linear mode, cancels the linear mode even under conditions to carry out the linear mode.
