Abstract
A method and device for operating a clutch between an internal combustion engine and at least one driven wheel of a vehicle, a torque being transmitted between the internal combustion engine and the driven wheel by pressing the clutch together via an application force or an application pressure, and the application force or the application pressure being controlled as a function of a clutch slip in the clutch when the torque is transmitted between the internal combustion engine and the driven wheel and a setpoint clutch slip.
