Breaking in clutch questions.

Hi everyone, just picked up a fx300 and I had a few questions about breaking it in.

1) How high of an RPM should I rev to get into 1st?
2) How would I downshift? i.e 6th cruising down to 30mph need to go into 4th, do I set it into 4th and just ease out the clutch without gas? Or do I use a bit of gas and rev match to 4th?
3) If I mainly have to go towards the highway, any speeds I shouldn't pass?
4) RPM's to shift at?
5) How long can I hold a clutch at the engagement point before it starts burning?
6) Any other tips? Concerns?

Thanks everyone!

*P.S this is for a different car, but the other car community sucks **** and hasn't answered this question so figured I'd go back to my original fr-s community*
