Getting Started Get a deeper understanding of your body, your health, and your progress with Fitbit Charge 3. Take a moment to review our complete safety information at fitbit.com/safety. What's in this manual We'll explain how to create a Fitbit® account and make 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.
The detachable wristbands on Charge 3 come in a variety of colors and materials, sold separately.
Set up Fitbit Charge 3 For the best experience, use the Fitbit app for iPhones and iPads, Android phones, or Windows 10 devices. If you don’t have a smartphone or tablet, you can also use a Bluetooth-enabled Windows 10 PC. Keep in mind that a phone is required for call, text, and calendar notifications. Your Fitbit account asks for information such as height, weight, and sex in order to calculate your stride length and to estimate distance, basal metabolic rate, and calorie burn.
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 you see a battery icon on the screen. 4. Charging fully takes about 1-2 hours. While the tracker charges, you can press the button to check the battery level. A fully charged tracker shows a solid battery icon with a smile.
Set up with your Windows 10 PC If you don't have a smartphone, you can set up and sync Charge 3 with a Bluetoothenabled Windows 10 PC and the Fitbit app. To get the Fitbit app for your computer: 1. Click the Start button on your PC and open the Microsoft Store. 2. Search for "Fitbit app". After you find it, click Free to download the app to your computer. 3. Click Microsoft account to sign in with your existing Microsoft account.
When you're done with setup, read through the guide to learn more about your new tracker and then explore the Fitbit app. Sync data to your Fitbit account Sync Charge 3 to transfer data to the Fitbit app, where you can review your exercise history, see your sleep stages, log food and water, participate in challenges, and more. We recommend syncing at least once a day. Each time you open the Fitbit app, Charge 3 syncs automatically when it's nearby.
Wear Charge 3 Place Charge 3 around your wrist. If you need to attach a different size wristband, or if you purchased an accessory wristband, you'll find instructions in "Change the wristband" on page 14. Placement for all-day wear vs exercise When you're not exercising, wear Charge 3 a finger's width below your wrist bone.
l l l Make sure the tracker is in contact with your skin. Don't wear your tracker too tight; a tight band restricts blood flow, potentially affecting the heart-rate signal. However, the tracker should be slightly tighter (snug but not constricting) during exercise than during all-day wear. 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.
Change the wristband Charge 3 comes with a small wristband attached and an additional large bottom band in the box. Both the top and bottom bands can be swapped with accessory bands, sold separately. For wristband measurements, see "Wristband size" on page 51. Remove a wristband To remove the wristband: 1. Turn Charge 3 over 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 button on the strap. 3.
Attach a new wristband To attach a new band, press it into the end of the tracker until you feel it snap into place. If you have trouble attaching the band or if it feels loose, gently move the band back and forth to make sure it is attached to the tracker.
