Abstract: A method for controlling a motor vehicle having at least one park lock. A drive train of the motor vehicle has a drive motor, wheel, and a transmission. An operating element actuates the park lock, which can assume a blocking position, in which the park lock blocks the drive train and/or a part of the drive train, and a release position. After actuation of the operating element, the park lock is switched from the release position into the blocking position (or vice versa). Here, the speed of the motor vehicle is determined. After actuation of the operating element and if the park lock assumes the release position beforehand, it is checked whether the speed is greater than a predefined first threshold value. If this check was successful, a first warning signal is produced; and the switching of the park lock into the blocking position is performed.

Abstract: Molecular sieves are modified by an ion exchange process where metal cations are introduced into the molecular sieves by means of solid state ion exchange. The solid state ion exchange can be carried out as follows: a weighed amount of calcined and activated zeolite is intimately mixed with a precalculated amount of PtCl.sub.2, PdCl.sub.2, RhCl.sub.3, CuCl.sub.2, V.sub.2 O.sub.5 or another compound of the noble metals (e.g., corresponding halides or oxides), the solids mixture is then heated in a current of inert gas (e.g., a current of helium gas or of nitrogen) to temperatures of 400.degree. to 600.degree. C., then cooled down to room temperature and subsequently reduced in a current of hydrogen for 10 to 14 hours at 280.degree. to 350.degree. C. in order to produce small metal clusters from the cationically introduced metal.
