Control method for continuously variable transmission of the hydraulic type.

A control method for a hydraulic type continuously variable transmission for suppressing a harmful effect due to the reacceleration just after deceleration of a vehicle. In a hydraulic type continuously variable transmission, the operation of a shifting actuator is stopped to suspend the shift control (S7) when a throttle valve is rapidly opened just after fully closed (S4: Yes) and an engine speed NE [rpm] is being rapidly increased (S6: Yes). Accordingly, even when the actual engine speed NE becomes much greater than a target engine speed T_NE during reacceleration just after deceleration of a vehicle, unexpected shift control (upshifting) can be prevented, so that more desirable torque can be produced.
