Power flow in 6th gear, function
The following multi-disk brakes and multi-disk clutches are engaged:
^ Multi-disk brake B1 (B1)
^ Multi-disk clutch K2 (K2)
^ Multi-disk clutch K3 (K3)

Ravigneaux gear set
The small internal-geared wheel (5) is driven by the transmission input shaft. The long planet gears (PL2l) roll over the stalled sun gear (7) and transmit the increased torque and reduced rotational speed as a result to the dual planet carrier (6).

Rear single planetary gear system
The internal-geared wheel (9) rotates at the same speed due to the mechanical connection to the dual planet carrier (6). The planet gears (PL6) transmit the rotary motion to the sun gear (11).

Sun gear (11) passes on the rotational speed to sun gear (14) via the closed multi-disk clutch K3 (K3).

Single front planetary gear system
The transmission input torque and transmission input speed are transmitted to the internal-geared wheel (12) by the closed multi- disk clutch K2 (K2). An increased rpm and a reduced torque occurs due to the rpm difference between the sun gear (14) and the ring gear (12). These are passed on via the planet carrier (13) to the transmission output shaft.

The transmission output shaft therefore rotates in the direction of rotation of the engine at reduced rpm relative to the transmission input shaft.
