With the quick shifter, it is not necessary to activate the clutch when upshifting gears
from the 1st to the 6th gear.
The ignition is briefly interrupted by the control unit during a shift procedure.
To simplify adjustment of the quick shifter, it is equipped with two LEDs.
The green LED lights up when the ignition is not interrupted.
The red LED lights up when the ignition is interrupted.
The time span of the ignition interruption must be matched to the vehicle.
Info
It is always possible to shift by conventional means using the clutch and throt-
tle.

Checking/tuning the position of the quick shifter

Info
The quick shifter only operates when upshifting gears from 1st to 6th gear.
If the ignition circuit is interrupted too late, upshifting under full throttle is difficult or not possible at all. If it is interrupted to
early, the ignition circuit may be interrupted unintentionally (e. g. due to shift lever vibrations).
If the ignition circuit is closed too early, the shift procedure in the transmission cannot be completed correctly.
