Zusammenfassung:Method of operating a continuously variable transmission comprising a drive belt (3) that is clamped between and in frictional contact with the discs (4,5) of a pulley (1; 2) of the transmission under the influence of a normal force Fn, in particular for regulating the lubrication thereof, wherein a flow of lubricant fed to the belt (3) and/or pulley (1; 2) of the transmission is regulated in proportion with either the temperature of the lubricant or an amount of slip S of the belt (3) relative to the pulley (1; 2) in the said frictional contact.
