A method of operating a torque transmitting system with a hydrodynamic power transmission and with a friction clutch which bridges the power transmission, involves controlling a lock-up clutch and the hydrodynamic power transmission of such system so that clutch slip is present. The method of operating involves a regulation of torque and includes the breaking up of input torque furnished by a prime mover into a torque which is to be transmitted by the power transmission and a torque which is to be transmitted by the lock-up clutch. The lock-up clutch includes an annular piston which is disposed between the cover of the power transmission and the turbine wheel. The radially outer portion of the piston constitutes a clutch disc and its radially inner. portion is mounted on a complementary sealing hub. The power transmission is "soft" and exhibits a flat progress of the primary characteristic curve as well as a wide secondary characteristic curve, i.e., a wide torque conversion range.
