Abstract

The invention relates to a method for controlling a control device for a motor vehicle which comprises measuring the variation in the pressure by a user pressing on a touch-sensitive surface (2) and generating a haptic feedback, characterised in that the haptic feedback comprises at least one vibratory feedback when the variation in the pressing pressure (dp1, dp2, dp2′) over a predetermined time (dt1, dt2) is within a predefined range, and in that the haptic feedback is replaced with a replacement acoustic feedback when the variation in the pressing pressure (dp1, dp2, dp2′) over the predetermined time (dt1, dt2) leaves the predefined range.
