PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a gear change instruction device which can perform such a down-shift instruction that an engine brake is applied at a downhill even in cruise control.SOLUTION: In a gear change instruction device of a vehicle 1 which is mounted with a manual transmission 4 by which a gear change stage can be manually changed, and comprises a constant velocity traveling control part 41 which maintains a vehicle speed which is set by a driver, and controls cruise control, the gear change instruction device comprises: a notification device 20 which notifies the change timing of the gear change stage which is formed at the manual transmission 4, and a gear change instruction part 40 which makes the notification device 20 notify the gear change timing when a preset condition is established. When the constant velocity traveling control part 41 performs the control of the cruise control, the gear change instruction part 40 changes a condition for making the notification device 20 notify the change timing.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
【課題】クルーズコントロール中においても、下り坂でエンジンブレーキをかけられるようなダウンシフト指示を行なうことができる変速指示装置を提供すること。【解決手段】手動で変速段の変更が可能な手動変速機4が搭載され、運転者が設定した車速を維持しクルーズコントロールを制御する定速走行制御部41を備える車両1の変速指示装置であって、手動変速機4に形成させる変速段の変更タイミングを報知する報知装置20と、予め設定された条件が成立した時に報知装置20に変速タイミングを報知させる変速指示部40と、を備え、変速指示部40は、定速走行制御部41がクルーズコントロールの制御を行なっている場合には、報知装置20に変更タイミングを報知させる条件を変更する。【選択図】図1
