Crucial element missed (or not obvious): Who did the tutorial? Somebody or "Simviation Support Staff"?

Heck, it looks like even I can understand it!

Hi, Don't take off with Autopilot.

Take off manually, 180kts should be a good speed to rotate (take off) - gentle & steady climb making sure your speed doesn't drop off (it shouldn't in a 737)

Set autopilot when you are established in a good climb pattern after flaps up. 8000ft wouldn't be a bad time to set AP.

Hope this helps.
