Driving down a steep slope requires you to brake by:

A Downshifting and then using the brakes.
explanation

You must use the braking effect of the engine as the principal way of controlling your speed on downgrades. The braking effect of the engine is greatest when it is near the governed rpms and the transmission is in the lower gears. Shift your transmission to a low gear before starting down the grade and use the proper braking techniques. [Commercial Driver Handbook]
