USER MANUAL

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 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, or 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.

See your data in the Fitbit app

Sync Versa Lite Edition to transfer your data to the Fitbit app, where you can view your activity and sleep data, log food and water, participate in challenges, and more. For best results, keep all-day sync turned on, so that Versa Lite Edition syncs periodically with the app.

Wear Versa Lite Edition

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

For optimized heart-rate tracking while exercising:

• During a workout, experiment with wearing the device higher on your wrist (2 finger widths) 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 heart-rate signal if the watch is lower on your wrist.

• Wear your Fitbit device on top of your wrist, and make sure the back of the device is in contact with your skin.
• Consider tightening your wristband before a workout and loosening it when you’re done. The wristband should be snug but not constricting (a tight wristband 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 wristband

Versa Lite Edition comes with a small wristband attached and an additional large, bottom wristband in the box. Both the top and bottom wristbands can be swapped with accessory wristbands, sold separately on fitbit.com. For wristband measurements, see "Wristband size" on page 48. All Versa series wristbands are compatible with all devices in the Fitbit Versa series.

Remove a wristband

1. Turn over Versa Lite Edition and find the quick-release lever.
2. While pressing the quick-release lever inward, gently pull the wristband away from the watch to release it.

3.Repeat on the other side.

Attach a wristband

1.To attach a wristband, 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 wristband into place.

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

Troubleshooting

If Versa Lite Edition isn't working properly, see our troubleshooting steps below.

Visit help.fitbit.com for more information.

Heart-rate signal missing

Versa Lite Edition continuously tracks your heart rate while you're exercising and throughout the day. If the heart-rate sensor on your watch has difficulty detecting a signal, dashed lines appear.

If your device doesn't detect a heart-rate signal, first make sure heart-rate tracking is turned on in the Settings app on your device. Next, make sure you're wearing your watch correctly, either by moving it higher or lower on your wrist or by tightening or loosening the wristband. Versa Lite Edition should be in contact with your skin. After holding your arm still and straight for a short time, you should see your heart rate again.

For more information, see help.fitbit.com.

GPS signal missing

Environmental factors, including tall buildings, dense forest, steep hills, and even thick cloud cover, can interfere with your phone's ability to connect to GPS satellites. If your phone is searching for a GPS signal during an exercise, connecting" appears at the top of the screen.

For best results, wait for your phone to find the signal before you start your workout.

Other issues

If you experience any of the following issues, restart your device:

• Won't sync
• Won't respond to taps, swipes, or button press
• Won't track steps or other data

See "Restart Versa Lite Edition" on page 43 for instructions on how to restart your watch.
