Preventing Breakdowns
ADVICE
If you rest your foot on the clutch
pedal while driving, the clutch could
partially disengage without you
realizing it, causing the clutch plates
to wear and the clutch to slip. Also,
do not slip the clutch as a way to
hold the vehicle in position (instead
of using the brakes) on, for example,
an uphill road.
