Operation
The driver's wish for the maximum vehicle acceleration is met by the kickdown function.
The kick-down function is activated starting from a pedal travel at the electronic accelerator of more than approx.90%.
Furthermore the driver can detect an increase in pedal effort at the kick-down point. For this purpose a kick-down simulator is integrated in the electronic accelerator.
The kick-down signal is recorded by the pedal value sensor (B37), read in by the ME-SFI control module (N3/10) or CDI (N3/9) control module and passed on to the ETC control module (N15/3).
Based on this information the ETC control module (N15/3) actuates the solenoid valves so that the upshifts and downshifts take place at higher engine speeds in order to achieve maximum performance.
