Default How to protect the SMG gearbox?

May I know which driving habit is the best for the SMG gearbox? high speed with S4-S5? How about if I shift from 1st to 2nd/ 4th to 5th gear? Do I need to lower the oil level?

Any links that teach us about this issue?

Put in N when red light. I heard this does not give a pressure to the pump. I sometimes put N when the red light or when I need to stop a car for long time on the road.
