In this situation, limit stop and go driving and gear
shifts or if necessary stop the vehicle and turn the
engine off to allow the clutch to cool.

To avoid clutch failure, do not use the accelerator
to keep the vehicle at a standstill (for example
holding on a hill); the clutch could be damaged by
overheating. Use the brake pedal instead and oper-
ate the accelerator only when you are ready to drive
away.
