Lubrication control apparatus for automatic transmission

A lubrication control apparatus that controls lubricating oil of an automatic transmission, comprising:

• a first lubrication circuit that supplies the lubricating oil to a starting frictional engagement element to be engaged when a vehicle starts;
• a second lubrication circuit that supplies the lubricating oil to a lubricated portion other than the starting frictional engagement element;
• and
• a controller that increases a flow rate of the lubricating oil supplied by the first lubrication circuit while limiting a flow rate of the lubricating oil supplied by the second lubrication circuit when a temperature of the starting frictional engagement element is equal to or higher than a threshold temperature,
• wherein the controller changes the threshold temperature in accordance with a temperature of the lubricating oil.
