•
Use the device in a place without magnetic interference for the device to operate
normally.
•
Your device and some accessories (sold separately) contain magnets. Keep
it away from credit cards, implanted medical devices, and other devices that
may be affected by magnets. In the case of medical devices, keep your device
more than 15 cm apart. Stop using your device if you suspect any interference
with your medical device and consult your physician or your medical device
manufacturer.
•
If you have a medical implant in your heart, do not place your device in a pocket
close to your implanted device, such as your chest or inner jacket pocket.
•
Keep a safe distance between objects that are affected by magnets, and your
device and some accessories (sold separately) that contain magnets. Objects
such as credit cards, passbooks, access cards, boarding passes, or parking passes
may be damaged or disabled by the magnets in the device.
•
Ensure that the band is kept clean. Contact with contaminants, such as dust and
dye, can cause stains on the band that may not be fully removed.
•
Do not insert sharp objects into the Fit’s external holes. The inner components
may be damaged along with the water-resistance feature.
•
If you use the Fit with its glass body broken, there may be a risk of injury. Use the
Fit only after it has been repaired at a Samsung Service Centre or an authorized
service centre.
•
Connectivity problems and battery drain may occur in the following situations:
‒
If you attach metallic stickers on the antenna area of the Fit
•
Do not cover the light sensor area with accessories, such as stickers or a cover.
Doing so may cause the sensor to malfunction.

extended periods.

Battery charging tips and precautions
Use only Samsung-approved charger and cable specifically designed for your Fit.
An incompatible charger or cable can cause serious injuries or damage to your
device.
•
Connecting the charger improperly may cause serious damage to the device. Any
damage caused by misuse is not covered by the warranty.
•
Use only the charging cable supplied with the Fit. The Fit cannot be charged
properly with a third-party charging cable.
•
If you charge the Fit while the charging cable is wet, the device may be damaged.
Thoroughly dry the charging cable before charging the Fit.
Getting started
11
•
To save energy, unplug the charger when not in use. The charger does not have a
power switch, so you must unplug the charger from the electric socket when not
in use to avoid wasting power. The charger should remain close to the electric
socket and easily accessible while charging.
•
When using a charger, it is recommended to use an approved charger that
guarantees the charging performance.
•
If there are obstructions between the Fit and the charging cable, it may not
charge properly. Check if there is any sweat, liquid, or dust on them before
charging.
•
If the battery is completely discharged, the Fit cannot be turned on immediately
after the charging cable is connected. Allow a depleted battery to charge for a
few minutes before turning it on.
•
If you use multiple apps at once or apps that need a connection to another
device, the battery will drain quickly. To avoid losing power during a data
transfer, always use these apps after fully charging the battery.
•
If you connect the charging cable to another power source, such as a computer
or multi-charging hub, the Fit may not charge properly or it may charge more
slowly because of a lower electric current.
•
The Fit can be used while it is charging, but it may take longer to fully charge the
battery.
•
If the Fit’s power supply is unstable while being used and charged at the same
time, the touch screen may not be responsive. If this happens, disconnect the Fit
from the charging cable.
•
While charging, the Fit may heat up. This is normal and should not affect the
Fit’s lifespan or performance. Before wearing the Fit, allow it to cool down for a
while before using it. If the battery gets hotter than usual, the charger may stop
charging.
•
If the Fit is not charging properly, take the Fit and the charging cable to a
Samsung Service Centre or an authorized service centre.
•
Avoid using a bent or damaged charging cable. If the charging cable is damaged,
stop using it.

Wearing the Fit
Attaching and removing the band
Attach the band before using your Fit. You can detach the band from the Fit and replace
it with a new one.
Be careful not to hurt your fingernail when attaching or removing bands.
The supplied band may vary depending on the region.
1 Attach the band to your Fit.
Getting started

14
Putting on the Fit
Open the buckle and place your Fit around your wrist. Fit the band to your wrist, insert
the pin into an adjustment hole, and then secure the buckle to close it. If the band is too
tight, use the next hole.
Do not bend the band excessively. Doing so may damage the Fit.
•
To measure your physical condition accurately, wear the Fit firmly around
your lower arm above the wrist. Refer to How to wear the Fit for accurate
measurements for more information.
•
When certain materials come into contact with the back of the Fit, your Fit
may recognize that you are wearing it on your wrist depending on the type of
material.
•
If the sensor on the back of your Fit do not come into contact with your wrist for
more than 10 minutes, your Fit may recognize that you are not wearing it on your
wrist.
Band tips and precautions
•
For accurate measurement, you have to wear the Fit so that it fits your wrist. After
measuring, loosen the band to allow air to reach your skin. It is recommended to
wear the Fit so that it is not too loose or tight, and that it feels comfortable in normal
circumstances.
•
When you wear the Fit for a long time or do a high-intensity exercise while wearing
it, skin irritation may occur because of certain factors, such as friction, pressure, or
moisture. If you have been wearing your Fit for a long time, remove it from your wrist
for a while to keep your skin healthy and allow your wrist to rest.
•
Skin irritation may occur because of an allergy, environment factors, other factors, or
when your skin is exposed to soap or sweat for long periods. In this case, stop using
your Fit immediately and wait 2 or 3 days for the symptoms to ease. If the symptoms
persist or worsen, call your doctor.
•
Make sure your skin is dry before wearing your Fit. If you wear a wet Fit for a long
time, your skin may be affected.
•
If you use your Fit in the water, remove foreign materials from your skin and Fit and
dry them thoroughly to prevent the skin irritation.
•
Do not use any accessories except the Fit in the water.

15
How to wear the Fit for accurate measurements
For accurate measurements, wear the Fit firmly around your lower arm above the wrist
while leaving a finger’s worth of space as shown in the figure.
<Rear>
Optical heart rate sensor
•
If you fasten the Fit too tightly, skin irritation may occur, and if you fasten it too
loosely, friction may occur.
•
Do not look directly at the optical heart rate sensor’s lights. Make sure children
do not look directly at the lights. Doing so may impair your vision.
•
If the Fit becomes hot to the touch, remove it until it cools. Exposing your skin to
the Fit’s hot surface for a long time may cause low-temperature burns.
Getting started
16
•
Use the HR feature only for measuring your heart rate. The accuracy of the
optical heart rate sensor may be diminished depending on the surroundings,
measurement conditions, and user’s physiological state.
•
As cold ambient temperatures may affect your measurement, keep yourself
warm when checking your heart rate during winter or cold weather.
•
Smoking or consuming alcohol before taking measurements may cause your
heart rate to be different from your normal heart rate.
•
Do not move, talk, yawn, or breathe deeply while taking heart rate
measurements. Doing so may cause your heart rate to be recorded inaccurately.
•
If your heart rate is extremely high or low, the measurement may not be
accurate.
•
If measuring children’s heart rates, the measurement may not be accurate.
•
Users with thin wrists may receive inaccurate heart rate measurements when
the Fit is loose, causing the light to be reflected unevenly. In this case, wear the
Fit on your inner arm.
•
If heart rate measurement is not working properly, adjust the position of the
Fit’s optical heart rate sensor to the right, left, up, or down on your wrist, or wear
the Fit on your inner arm so that the sensor is in contact with your skin.
•
If the optical heart rate sensor is dirty, wipe the sensor and try again. If foreign
materials prevent the light from reflecting evenly, the measurement may not be
accurate.
•
The optical heart rate sensor may be affected by tattoos, marks, and hair on the
wrist you wear your Fit on. These may cause your Fit not to recognize that you are
wearing it, and the Fit’s features may not work properly. Therefore, wear your Fit
on a wrist that does not interfere with the Fit’s features.
•
The measurement features may not work properly because of certain factors,
such as the light from the optical heart rate sensor being blocked, depending
on your skin brightness, blood flow under your skin, and the cleanliness of the
sensor area.

Maintaining the device’s water and dust
resistance
•
This device is water and dust resistant, and meets the following international
standards.
‒
5ATM water resistance classification certification: Was tested by submerging
the device in 50 m of fresh water for 10 minutes, leaving it still, without any
movement, to meet the requirements of ISO 22810:2010.
‒
IPX8 water resistance classification certification: Was tested by submerging
the device in 1.5 m of fresh water for 30 minutes, leaving it still, without any
movement, to meet the requirements of IEC 60529.
‒
IP6X dust resistance classification certification: Was tested to meet the
requirements of IEC 60529.
•
You can use this device when you are exercising, washing your hands or on a rainy
day.
•
You can use this device when you are swimming in a pool or the sea where the water
level is not deep.
•
The water resistance of your Galaxy device is not permanent and may diminish over
time. It is recommended to have your Galaxy device’s water resistance tested once a
year at a Samsung Service Centre or an authorized service centre.
•
You must follow these guidelines to maintain the water and dust resistance of your
device.
‒
After swimming, and before the pool water or seawater has dried, rinse the device
with fresh water and dry it thoroughly with a soft, clean cloth to maintain its
water resistance. The water resistance may be affected by the disinfectants in
swimming pool water or the salt in seawater.
‒
If the device gets wet with liquid other than fresh water, such as coffee, drinks,
soapy water, oil, perfume, sunscreen, hand sanitizer, or chemical products like
cosmetics, rinse the device with fresh water and dry it thoroughly with a soft,
clean cloth to maintain its water resistance.
Usage notices
79
‒
Do not stay submerged underwater, go snorkeling, diving or scuba diving, or play
water sports like water-skiing or surfing, and do not swim in fast-moving water,
such as a river, while wearing your device. Also, do not expose it to high-pressure
cleaning machines or similar things. This would result in a dramatic rise in water
pressure which could cause the water resistance guaranteed by our company to
change.
‒
If the device is hit or damaged, its water and dust resistance may be
compromised.
‒
Do not disassemble your device without proper guidance.
‒
If you dry your device with a machine that gives off hot air, like a hair dryer, or if
you use your device in a hot environment like a sauna, the water resistance could
be damaged by a dramatic change in the air or water temperature.

Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless Devices
The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy absorbed by the
user of a wireless device.
The SAR value of a device is the result of an extensive testing, measuring and calculation
process. It does not represent how much RF the device emits. All devices are tested
at their highest value in strict laboratory settings. But when in operation, the SAR of
a device can be substantially less than the level reported to ISED (Innovation, Science
and Economic Development Canada). This is because of a variety of factors including
its proximity to a base station antenna, design and other factors. What is important to
remember is that each device meets strict federal guidelines. Variations in SAR values
do not represent a variation in safety.
All devices must meet the federal standard, which incorporates a substantial margin of
safety. As stated above, variations in SAR values between different model devices do not
mean variations in safety.
SAR values at or below the federal standard limit are considered safe for use by the
public. The federal standard limits are 4.0 W/ kg (10g) of extremity SAR and 1.6W/kg
(1g) of Head/Wrist SAR. The extremity SAR (wrist SAR) has been used for non-speaker
modes at a 0 cm device distance from the body when worn in contact with the wrist.
Additionally, for voice activated transmission, the front of this device has been tested
when worn on the wrist and positioned a minimum of 1.0 cm from the head.
If your device supports the wireless power sharing function, this equipment should be
operated with a minimum distance of 10cm between the device and your body.
If Wireless charger is supported, the wireless charger complies with ISED Radiation
exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This device and its
antenna must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter. This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance
of 10 cm between the radiator and your body.
