摘要

The device has a steering column switch lever pivotable into park and drive settings for an automatic gearbox and connected to a first gate guide element with locking and release positions. A guide path can be blocked by an electrical control element whose position depends on the state of a vehicle brake. A second guide element is connected to an ignition lock so an ignition key position change moves it from the locking to the release position. The device has a pivotable steering column switch lever (1) pivotable at least into park and drive settings for an automatic gearbox and connected to move with a first guide element (2) of a gate with at least one locking position and a release position. A guide path (19) can be blocked by an electrical control element (5) whose position depends on the state of a vehicle brake. A second guide element is connected to an ignition lock (6) so an ignition key position change moves the second guide element from the locking to the release position.
