Shift-lock, function - GF27.10-P-2008GB

TRANSMISSION 722.6 in MODEL 163, 170, 202, 208, 210 with touch shift 

Operation 

The term shift lock combines the functions which, in addition to the parking brake, offer an additional safeguard for the vehicle to prevent it moving off unintentionally.

These include the functions of locking the selector lever position "P" and locking the ignition lock as well as the parking lock in the transmission.

The shift lock function only allows shifting out of selector lever position "P" if the transmitter key (A8/1) has been turned into the position "Ignition: ON" and the brake pedal is depressed.

In order to ensure that after parking the vehicle the selector lever is shifted into selector lever position "P", the transmitter key (A8/1) can only be turned towards "0" in this position and removed from the EZS control module (N73) (ignition lock locking, function).

The vehicle is secured mechanically by blocking the park pawl gear.

In the event of mechanical or electrical/electronic faults it is possible to unlock selector lever position "P" manually ( shift lock override function).
