Using the Elite Sterzo Smart is a breeze. First, place the front wheel of your bike on the steering plate, making sure the smaller pointed side of the plate faces forward. You should be able to see the LED lights on the front - left of the base. Then, connect the unit to Zwift via Bluetooth. Once connected, you can enjoy a realistic indoor riding experience, controlling your avatar on the screen. When you're in the Zwift game, look for the “Steering Enabled” icon to find courses where you can use the steering feature. As for maintenance, keep the device clean and dry. If the batteries run out, simply replace the included AAA batteries. Since it has anti - slip rubber feet, be careful not to damage them. For the best performance, it's recommended to use it with the Elite TRAINING MAT.
