• Enter calibration mode and set bite-point to high value, e.g. 80 %
• Pull slave clutch only
• Apply throttle
• Reduce bite-point in 1.0 % increments (left joystick) until vehicle starts moving
• Make test starts to fine tune desired bite-point setting
• Exit bite-point calibration modeRecommended procedure for quick race starts
• Pull both master and slave clutches
• Apply throttle
• Race start -> let master clutch snap
• It will take less than 20 ms to reach desired bite-point
• Slowly release slave clutchHIGH QUALITY FINISH
