It is important that the toboggan has a strap. This allows you to hold it firmly during the ride so that it does not continue on its own in the event of a fall. The runners should also be pulled up over the edge at the back so that you can brake well.
On flat terrain, simply press both feet into the snow next to the runners to brake. If it is steep, you should sit right at the back and pull the toboggan upwards at the front with your feet in addition to braking normally. This way you brake at the back with the runners.
To steer, simply press your foot into the snow. The harder you press, the tighter the turn.
