Since E1 provides a relatively high amount of sleep, transition to this schedule from monophasic sleep should be done immediately (i.e., [[cold turkey]]). However, unlike other polyphasic schedules with less total sleep, learning to nap on E1 may take up to several weeks because humans have been observed to get used to sleeping monophasically for only 6 hours per night, sometimes for extended periods. Thus, it will take time for sleep pressure to build to be able to fall asleep in the naps. However, experienced nappers or those with high natural ability to fall asleep may still be able to fall asleep for the nap within a few days.

Adaptation to E1 follows the same rules as any other reducing polyphasic schedules: it is necessary to go to sleep at the same time everyday for the nap and the core for the new sleep habits to stick. However, when the total sleep on E1 (6.3h) is very close to as personal monophasic baseline, the schedule can be instead considered to be and be more flexible right from the start.
