Return pitch control force to zero with control wheel switches and then immediately disable trim motors.
Set the pilot not flying the job of operating the trim wheel as directed by the PF.
If that does not work, pilot not flying will re-enable the switches as directed by the PF only long enough to use the trim switches to zero pitch control forces and immediately disable them when completed.
As the pilot is able, immediately declare emergency and land ASAP.
These are indicators the pilots can memorize.
