Box Contents Your Fitbit Aria Scale will contain: The Fitbit Aria Scale 4 AA batteries, already installed The Aria Quick Start Guide General Information Age/Weight Restrictions The Aria will work for children over 20 lbs.
Pregnancy The Aria Scale is safe for pregnant women to use. While weight data will be accurate, it will not likely be accurate for body fat % or BMI since there are dynamic psychological changes that occur during pregnancy.
Getting Started 1. Go to www.fitbit.com/start and follow the link for the Aria set up. Then download the latest Aria installer software for your OS. 2. Run the installation file and follow onscreen instructions 3. After installation, you will be taken to the account setup screen. (include screen shots here) Setting Up Your Fitbit Aria Using a Wi-Fi Enabled Computer 1. After installing the software, you should automatically be taken into Account Setup.
5. Place your scale in setup mode by pulling on the small tab located on the bottom of your scale by the battery compartment. The scale’s display will read “SETUP ACTIVE”. If you already pulled the tab and the screen does not show “SETUP ACTIVE,” remove one battery, wait several seconds, replace the battery and close the battery compartment. (‘Setup active’ display picture here?) 6. The setup software should send your Wi-Fi network to the scale and connect.
Using your Fitbit Aria Scale How it Works The Aria will measure your weight and body fat %. Your BMI is calculated and displayed on your Fitbit.com account and in the mobile apps. It uploads through your home wireless network to your account on Fitbit.com. For greatest accuracy, the scale should be kept on a hard, flat surface. It should not be used on carpet. To properly measure body fat %, you must be barefoot and balanced evenly between both sides of the scale.
(Show screenshot here of sample body fat % reading) o This reading will only be displayed after you connect your Fitbit.com account with the scale. If you weigh yourself out of the box, it will show weight but will not have the required body data (height, age, gender) to give an accurate body fat reading. o A user must be barefoot to get a body fat % reading. o If a user is pregnant, the body fat % may not be accurate.
Once an invited user has accepted their invite and linked their account with the scale, they’ll be able to use the scale and have it wirelessly upload to their Fitbit.com account. Even with multiple people using the scale, all assigned measurements will be private unless the user has changed their privacy settings to make them visible to friends or public. If you’re not sure what your privacy settings are, you can see them by going to http://www.fitbit.com/user/profile/privacy.
Reassigning a Measurement to “Guest” If a measurement that isn’t yours gets uploaded to your account, you can reassign it. Go to your device settings page (http://www.fitbit.com/settings/device/scale), and click on the “Measurements” tab. Under the “People” column, click on the measurement you wish to reassign and select “Guest” from the drop-down menu. When there are unassigned Guest weights, there will be an alert on your Dashboard.

You can create a custom activity by entering the activity name in the search box and clicking Create Custom Activity.

Food, Activity, and Sleep Reports Your reports display the last completed week, displaying your logged items, total, averages and other relevant data to paint a complete picture of your week. If you are not using a Fitbit Aria, you will not have any sleep reports. Use the date navigator to select any date. The report associated with the week that falls in will display.
Once your 12 week Fitness Plan is complete, you can immediately start a new one. The completed Fitness Plan will be available for review on the Trainer tab. With no completed Fitness Plans and your first Fitness Plan running, there is nothing to be displayed on the Trainer tab so it links to the Dashboard where the Fitness Plan is. Export You have the option to export data using any custom data range.
Troubleshooting Changing Your Network To change the network your scale is connected with, you’ll need to go through the setup process again. 1. Begin the setup process by running the Fitbit installer software. If you haven’t downloaded it yet, you can do so by going to www.fitbit.com/start and following the link for Aria setup. 2. The setup process will begin. Sign in with your existing account. NOTE: Someone who is already linked to the scale should do this.
After launch we will ADD an option in device settings that allows people to decide if they want automatic or manually updated Firmware.
