Set up Versa Lite Edition

For the best experience, use the Fitbit app for iPhones and iPads or Android phones. You can also set up Versa Lite Edition on Windows 10 devices. If you don’t have a compatible phone or tablet, use a Bluetooth-enabled Windows 10 PC. Keep in mind that a phone is required for call, text, calendar, and smartphone app notifications.

To create a Fitbit account, you're prompted to enter your birthdate, height, weight, and sex to calculate your stride length and to estimate distance, basal metabolic rate, and calorie burn. After you set up your account, your first name, last initial, and profile picture are visible to all other Fitbit users. You have the option to share other information, but most of the information you provide to create an account is private by default.

Charge your watch

A fully-charged Versa Lite Edition has a battery life of up to 4+ days. Battery life and charge cycles vary with use and other factors; actual results will vary.

To charge Versa Lite Edition:

1. Plug the charging cable into the USB port on your computer, a UL-certified USB wall charger, or another low-energy charging device.

2. Pinch the clip and place Versa Lite Edition in the charging cradle. The pins on the charging cradle must align with the gold contacts on the back of the watch. The percent charged appears on screen.

While the watch charges, tap the screen twice to turn the screen on and check the battery level. Tap again to use Versa Lite Edition.

Wear Versa Lite Edition

PlaceVersa Lite Edition around your wrist. If you need to attach a different size band, or if you purchased another band, see the instructions in "Change the band"

on page13.

Placement for all-day wear vs. exercise

When you're not exercising, wear Versa Lite Edition a finger's width above your wrist bone.

For optimized heart-rate tracking while exercising:

l During a workout, experiment with wearing your watch a bit higher on your

wrist for an improved fit. Many exercises, such as bike riding or weight lifting, cause you to bend your wrist frequently, which could interfere with the heartrate signal if the watch is lower on your wrist.

l Wear your watch on top of your wrist, and make sure the back of the device is

in contact with your skin.

l Consider tightening your band before a workout and loosening it when you’re

done. The band should be snug but not constricting (a tight band restricts blood flow, potentially affecting the heart-rate signal).

Handedness

For greater accuracy, you must specify whether you wear Versa Lite Edition on your dominant or non-dominant hand. Your dominant hand is the one you use for writing and eating. To start, the Wrist setting is set to non-dominant. If you wear Versa Lite Edition on your dominant hand, change the Wrist setting in the Fitbit app:

From the Today tab in the Fitbit app, tap your profile picture >Versa Lite Edition tile >Wrist >Dominant.

Change the band

Versa Lite Edition comes with a small band attached and an additional large, bottom band in the box. Boththe top and bottom bands can be swapped with accessory bands, sold separately on fitbit.com. For band measurements, see "Band

size" on page49. All Versa series bands are compatible with all devices in the Fitbit

Versa series.

Remove a band

1. Turn over Versa Lite Edition and find the quick-release lever.

2. While pressing the quick-release lever inward, gently pull the band away from the watch to release it.

3. Repeat on the other side.

Attach a band

1. To attach a band, hold the band at a 45° angle and slide the pin (the side opposite the quick-release lever) into the notch on the watch.

2. While pressing the quick-release lever inward, slide the other end of the band into place.

3. When both ends of the pin are inserted, release the quick-release lever.
