Getting Started
Welcome to Fitbit FB409 & FB410™, the smart fitness band that helps you reach your goals in style. Take a moment to review our complete safety information at
http://www.fitbit.com/safety.
What you’ll find in the box
Your Fitbit FB409 & FB410 box includes:
The top and bottom detachable wristbands can be swapped for other colors and materials sold separately.
What’s in this document
We get you started quickly creating a Fitbit® account and making sure your tracker can transfer the data it collects to your dashboard. The dashboard is where you’ll set goals, analyze historical data, identify trends, log food and water, keep up with friends, and much more. As soon as you’re done setting up your tracker, you’re ready to start moving.
Next, we explain how to find and use the features that interest you and adjust your preferences. To find more information, tips, and troubleshooting, please browse our comprehensive articles at help.fitbit.com.
Setting up your Fitbit FB409 & FB410
For the best experience we recommend using the Fitbit apps for iOS, Android, or Windows 10. If you don’t have a mobile device, you can also use a Bluetooth®-enabled Windows 10 PC or Mac. For non-Bluetooth options visit help.fitbit.com.
Your Fitbit account asks for information such as height, weight, and gender to make various calculations such as stride lengths to estimate distance and basal metabolic rate to estimate calorie burn. You have the option to share your age, height, or weight with Fitbit friends but the information you provide is private by default.
Setting up your tracker on your mobile device
The free Fitbit app is compatible with more than 200 mobile devices that support iOS, Android, and Windows 10 operating systems. To get started:
1. Make sure the Fitbit app is compatible with your mobile device by checking
http://www.fitbit.com/devices.
2. Find the Fitbit app in one of these locations, depending on your device:
The Apple® App Store® for iOS devices such as an iPhone® or iPad®.
The Google Play Store for Android devices such as the Samsung®
Galaxy® S5 and Motorola Droid Turbo.
The Microsoft® Windows Store for Windows 10 mobile devices such as the Lumia phone or Surface tablet.
3. Install the app. Note that if you don’t have an account with the store you’ll be required to create one before you can download the app.
4. When the app is installed, open it and tap Join Fitbit to be guided through a series of questions that help you create your Fitbit account, or login to your existing account.
5. Continue following the onscreen instructions to connect, or FB410 to your mobile device. Pairing makes sure the tracker and mobile device can communicate with one another (sync data back and forth).
When you’re done pairing, read through the guide about your new tracker and then explore the Fitbit dashboard.

When you’re done pairing, read through the guide about your new tracker and then explore the Fitbit dashboard.
Setting up your tracker on your Mac
If you don’t have a compatible mobile device, you can set up your tracker with a Bluetooth-enabled Mac and use the fitbit.com dashboard to see your stats. To use this method you’ll first install a free software application called Fitbit Connect that lets FB409 & FB410 sync its data with your fitbit.com dashboard.
To install Fitbit Connect and set up your tracker:
1. Go to http://www.fitbit.com/setup.
2. Scroll down and click the option to download. If the button does not correctly show your type of computer (for example, if it says “Download for Mac”), choose the correct type, then click the button.
3. You’ll see an option to open or save a file; choose open. After several seconds you’ll see an option to install Fitbit Connect.
4. Double-click Install Fitbit Connect.pkg. The Fitbit Connect installer opens.
5. Click Continue to move through the installer.
6. When prompted, choose Set up a New Fitbit Device.
7. Follow the onscreen instructions to create a Fitbit account, or login to your existing account, and connect your tracker with Fitbit Connect.
When you’re done with the setup steps, Fitbit guides you through an introduction to your new FB409 & FB410 and then takes you to the fitbit.com dashboard.
Syncing your tracker data to your Fitbit account
When you start using your FB409 & FB410 you'll need to regularly sync it with your Fitbit dashboard. The dashboard is where you’ll track progress, see your exercise history, track your sleep patterns, participate in challenges, and much more. We recommend syncing at least once a day.
The Fitbit apps and Fitbit Connect use Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology to sync with your Fitbit tracker.
Each time you open the Fitbit app it syncs automatically if the paired tracker is nearby. You can also use the Sync Now option in the app at any time.
Fitbit Connect syncs every 15 minutes if the tracker is within 20 feet of the computer. To force a sync, click the Fitbit Connect icon located near the date and time on your computer and choose Sync Now.
Getting to know your Fitbit FB409 & FB410
This section tells you how best to wear, navigate, and charge your tracker. If you bought an accessory wristband, you’ll also find instructions for taking off the original band and putting on a different one.
Wrist placement
Review these tips to make sure you’re wearing your tracker for optimal results.
All-day wear and exercise
For all-day wear when you’re not exercising, your FB409 & FB410 should usually rest a finger’s width below your wrist bone and lay flat, as you would normally wear a watch.
For optimized heart rate tracking keep these tips in mind:
1. Experiment with wearing the tracker higher on your wrist during exercise. Because blood flow in your arm increases the farther up you go, moving the tracker up a couple inches can improve the heart rate signal. Also, many exercises such as bike riding or weight lifting cause you to bend your wrist frequently, which is more likely to interfere with the heart rate signal if the tracker is lower on your wrist.
2. Do not wear your tracker too tight; a tight band restricts blood flow, potentially affecting the heart rate signal. That being said, the tracker should also be slightly tighter (snug but not constricting) during exercise than during all-day wear.
3. With high-intensity interval training or other activities where your wrist is moving vigorously and non-rhythmically, the movement may limit the sensor’s ability to provide a heart rate reading. Similarly, with exercises such as weight lifting or rowing, your wrist muscles may flex in such a way that the band tightens and loosens during exercise. If your tracker does not show a heart rate reading, try relaxing your wrist and staying still briefly (about 10 seconds), after which you should see a heart rate reading.
Wrist choice and dominant hand
For greater accuracy, your tracker needs to know which wrist you wear it on (right or left) and which hand you consider dominant (right or left). Your dominant hand is the one you usually write or throw with.
During setup you’re asked to choose the wrist where you're going to wear your tracker. Should you later decide to move your tracker to the other wrist, change the Wrist setting. You can also change your dominant hand at any time with the Handedness setting. Both settings are found in the Account section of the Fitbit app or in the Personal Info section of your fitbit.com dashboard settings.

Tapping your tracker
For best results, tap your tracker where the screen meets the band as shown. To wake up your tracker, double-tap it; to flip through your stats or the menus, single-tap it.
FB409 & FB410 doesn’t respond to swipes. You must use the button or firmly and quickly tap the screen.
Battery life and charging
Your fully charged FB409 & FB410 has a battery life of up to five days. Battery life and charge cycles vary with use and other factors; actual results will vary.
Finding your current battery level
If your battery is low, when you wake up your FB409 & FB410 you’ll see a low battery icon after a few seconds. If you see a critical battery icon you’ll be unable to navigate to any of the tracker screens until you charge your tracker. Your tracker continues to track your activity until your battery runs out.
You can check your battery level at any time on the battery screen on your tracker or on your Fitbit dashboard. To see the battery screen you must turn on the battery menu item in the Fitbit app.
Charging your tracker
To charge your tracker:
1. Plug the charging cable into the USB port on your computer or a UL-certified USB wall charger.
2. Clip the other end of the charging cable to the port on the back of the tracker. The pins on the charging cable must lock securely with the port.
3. Make sure the button on your tracker is aligned with the button opening on the charging cable. You’ll know the connection is secure when the tracker vibrates and you see a battery icon on your tracker’s display. The battery icon disappears after three seconds.
Charging fully takes about one to two hours. While the tracker charges, you can tap it to check the battery level. A fully charged tracker shows a solid battery icon.
Care
It’s important to clean and dry your FB409 & FB410 regularly. For instructions and more information, see http://www.fitbit.com/productcare.
Changing the wristband
The wristband has two separate bands (top and bottom) that you can swap with accessory bands sold separately.
Removing a wristband
To remove the wristband:
1. Turn over your FB409 & FB410 and find the band latches—there’s one on each end where the band meets the frame.
2. To release the latch, press down on the flat metal button on the strap.
3. Slide the band up to release it from the tracker.
4. Repeat on the other side.
If you’re having trouble removing the band or if it feels stuck, gently move the band back and forth to release it.
Attaching a new wristband
Before you attach a new wristband, first identify the top and bottom bands. The top band has a watch buckle at the end of it. The bottom band has notches and should be attached on the side closest to the charging port.
To attach a band, slide it down on the end of the tracker until you feel it snap into place.

Description
Out of Zone
Below 50% of your maximum heart rate.
Your heart rate may be elevated but not enough to be considered exercise.
Fat Burn
Between 50% and 69% of your maximum heart rate.
Low-to-medium intensity exercise zone. This zone may be a good place to start for those new to exercise. It’s called the Fat Burn zone because a higher percentage of calories are burned from fat, but the total calorie burn rate is lower.
Cardio
Between 70% and 84% of maximum heart rate.
Medium-to-high intensity exercise zone. In this zone you’re pushing yourself but not
Using heart-rate zones
Heart-rate zones help you target the training intensity of your choice. Your tracker shows your current zone above your heart rate, and on your Fitbit dashboard you can see your time spent in zones during a particular day or exercise. Three zones based on American Heart Association recommendations are available by default, or you can create a custom zone if you have a specific heart rate you’re targeting.
Default heart-rate zones
Default heart-rate zones are calculated using your estimated maximum heart rate. Fitbit calculates your maximum heart rate with the common formula of 220 minus your age.
The heart icon you see above your current heart rate tells you your zone. Refer to the following table for an explanation of the different heart rate zones.
straining. For most people this is the exercise zone to target.
Peak
Greater than 85% of your maximum heart rate.
High-intensity exercise zone. This zone is for short intense sessions that improve performance and speed.
Custom heart-rate zones
Instead of using the default heart-rate zones, you can configure a custom zone or a custom max heart rate if you have a specific target in mind. For example, elite athletes might have a target that differs from the American Heart Association’s recommendations for the average person. When you’re in your custom zone you’ll see a solid heart on your tracker. When you’re not in the zone you’ll see an outline of a heart.
For more details about heart rate tracking, including links to relevant American Heart Rate Association information, see help.fitbit.com.
Tracking a daily activity goal
Your FB409 & FB410 tracks your progress towards a daily activity goal of your choice. When you reach your goal, the tracker vibrates and shows a celebration.
Choosing a goal
By default your goal is 10,000 steps per day. You can change the goal to distance traveled, calories burned, active minutes, or floors climbed and select the corresponding value you prefer. For example, you may want to keep steps as your goal but change the target from 10,000 to 20,000 steps.

Seeing goal progress
A goal progress bar helps keep you motivated. The filled in portion of the bar shown below indicates that you’re more than halfway to your goal.
Tracking hourly activity
FB409 & FB410 helps keep you active throughout the day by keeping track of when you’re stationary and reminding you to move.
If you haven’t walked at least 250 steps in a given hour, at ten minutes before the hour you’ll feel a vibration reminding you to walk. When you meet the 250-step goal after receiving a reminder, you’ll feel a second vibration and see a congratulatory message. You’ll also see a daily celebration if you meet your goal every hour.

To preserve battery your screen turns off when not in use. It wakes up automatically when you turn your wrist towards you (known as Quick View), or you can wake it up by pressing the button or double tapping.
For more information about turning Quick View on or off, see help.fitbit.com.
Adjusting the heart rate tracker
Your FB409 & FB410 uses PurePulseÒ technology to track heart rate automatically and continuously. The Heart Rate setting has three options:
Auto (the default)—Heart rate tracking is active when you’re wearing your tracker.
Off—Heart rate tracking is off.
On—Heart rate tracking is on regardless of whether you’re wearing your tracker.
For more information about adjusting the heart rate tracker, see help.fitbit.com.
Updating your Fitbit FB409 & FB410
We occasionally make free feature enhancements and product improvements available through firmware updates. We recommend keeping your FB409 & FB410 up to date.
When a firmware update is available you’ll see a notification in the Fitbit app prompting you to update. When the update starts, a progress bar appears on the tracker and in the Fitbit app until the update is complete.
Keep your tracker and mobile device close to each other during the update process.
Note: Updating your FB409 & FB410 takes several minutes and may be demanding on
the battery. For this reason we recommend updating while your tracker is fully charged or plugged into the charging cable.
Troubleshooting your Fitbit FB409 & FB410
If your tracker is not working properly, review our troubleshooting guidance below.
Visit help.fitbit.com more information.
Heart-rate signal missing
FB409 & FB410 continuously tracks your heart rate while you’re exercising and throughout the day. Occasionally the heart rate tracker may have difficulty finding a good signal. When this happens you’ll see dashed lines where your current heart rate usually appears
Heart rate signal missing
If you’re not getting a heart rate signal, first make sure you’re wearing your tracker correctly, either moving it higher or lower on your wrist or tightening or loosening the band. After holding your arm still and straight for a short wait, you should see your heart rate again. If the heart rate signal is still missing, check your Heart Rate setting on your Fitbit dashboard and make sure it’s set to On or Auto.
Unexpected behavior
If you experience one of the following problems, it may be fixed by restarting your tracker:
Not syncing despite successful setup
Not responding to button presses or taps despite being charged
Not tracking your steps or other data
Note: Restarting your tracker reboots the device but does not delete any data.
To restart your tracker:
1. Plug the charging cable into the USB port on your computer or a UL-certified USB wall charger.
2. Clip the other end of the charging cable to the port on the back of the tracker. The pins on the charging cable must lock securely with the port.
3. Make sure the button on your tracker is aligned with the button opening on the charging cable. You’ll know the connection is secure when the tracker vibrates and you see a battery icon on your tracker’s display. Your FB409 & FB410 will begin charging.
4. Press and hold the button on your tracker for four seconds. When you see the Fitbit logo and the tracker vibrates, this means the tracker has restarted.
After your tracker restarts you can unplug it from the charging cable and put it back on. For additional troubleshooting or to contact Customer Support, see help.fitbit.com.
