Wristbands
Putting on your Flex
Your Flex comes with a large and a small wristband. If you want to use the small wristband, complete the next task before continuing. If you want to use the large wristband, skip the next task and go directly to “Inserting the tracker into the wristband” on page 2.
Moving the clasp from the large to small wristband
If you choose the small wristband, you’ll need to remove the clasp from the large wristband and put it into the small wristband. To do so:
1. Push the clasp out with one thumb from the inside of the wristband.
2. Pull out the clasp.
3. Insert the clasp into the small wristband by pressing a few times with both thumbs to ensure that the clasp is flat and in line with the wristband.
2
NOTE: If there is a bulge on the inside of the band between the two inside prongs of
the clasp, find a small object like a credit card to push it flat.
Inserting the tracker into the wristband
Hold the tracker in your hand with the grey arrow facing up. Insert this end into the wristband, with the arrow pointing toward the holes in the wristband.
3
Securing your wristband
1. Put on the wristband so the window of lights are closest to the outside of your wrist and facing you.
2. Align both ends of the wristband so they are directly overlapping each other with the clasp over the two holes that best fit your wrist.
3. Squeeze both the clasp and the wristband between your thumb and forefinger until you hear a click.
4
You’ll know your Flex wristband is securely fastened if both ends of the wristband are fully inserted.
NOTE: If you’re having trouble, try securing the wristband off your wrist to get a feel
for how it securely clasps and then try again on your wrist.
Care and wearing tips
Keep the following tips in mind when caring for your Flex:
• Clean and dry the Flex regularly, particularly under the band.
• Wear your Flex band loosely enough to allow air circulation.
• Use skin care products sparingly on the areas of the wrist covered by the Flex.
• If you notice any signs of skin irritation or experience any discomfort, please
discontinue use.

3. You’ll be prompted to open or save the installation file. Choose to save the file.
Installing Fitbit Connect and pairing your Flex
1. Plug your wireless sync dongle into your computer’s USB port and have your charged tracker nearby.
