Getting Started Welcome to Fitbit Flex 2™, the versatile activity and sleep tracker that makes fitness fashionable. Take a moment to review our complete safety information at http://www.fitbit.com/safety. What’s in the box Your Fitbit Flex 2 box includes: Tracker Charging cable Small & large wristbands Visit the fitbit.com store to find Flex 2 accessories in other styles and colors sold separately.
Putting on your Fitbit Flex 2 Your Flex 2 comes with a large and a small wristband. If you want to use the large wristband you’ll need to move the clasp from the small wristband. If you need help inserting the tracker into an accessory such as a pendant, see help.fitbit.com. Moving the clasp from the small to large wristband If you choose to wear the large wristband, you’ll need to remove the clasp from the small wristband and put it into the large wristband: 1.
Securing your wristband 1. Put on the wristband so the colored LED light is closest to the outside of your wrist. 2. Align both ends of the wristband so they are directly overlapping each other with the clasp over the two holes that best fit your wrist. 3. Squeeze both the clasp and the wristband between your thumb and forefinger until you hear a click.
You’ll know your Flex 2 wristband is securely fastened if both ends of the wristband are fully inserted. NOTE: If you’re having trouble, try securing the wristband off your wrist to get a feel for how it securely clasps and then try again on your wrist.
Setting up your Fitbit Flex 2 We recommend using the Fitbit apps for iOS, Android, or Windows 10 to set up your tracker and make the most of the Fitbit experience. If you don’t have a mobile device you can also use a Bluetooth®-enabled Windows 10 PC or Mac.

The Fitbit apps and Fitbit Connect use Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology to sync with your Fitbit tracker. Each time you open the Fitbit app it syncs automatically if the paired tracker is nearby. You can also use the Sync Now option in the app at any time. Fitbit Connect syncs every 15 minutes if the tracker is within 20 feet of the computer.
Getting to know your Fitbit Flex 2 This section tells you how best to wear, navigate, and recharge your tracker. Wrist choice and dominant hand For greater accuracy, your tracker needs to know which wrist you wear it on (right or left) and which hand you consider dominant (right or left). Your dominant hand is the one you usually write or throw with. During setup you’re asked to choose the wrist where you're going to wear your tracker.
Activity goal tracking Tap your Flex 2 to see your progress towards your daily activity goal. Each solid white light represents 25% of your goal, meaning for example that if your goal is 10,000 steps and you see four white lights, you’ve gone at least 7500 steps. When you reach your goal Flex 2 vibrates and the lights flash in celebration.
2. Press the tracker into the compartment on the charging cable The pins on the charging cable must align with the corresponding pins on the back of the tracker and lock securely in place. You’ll know the connection is secure when the tracker vibrates and you see the indicator lights blinking, indicating your progress towards a total charge. Charging fully takes about two to three hours. While the tracker charges, each white light that turns on represents 25% of the maximum charge.
Automatic Tracking with Fitbit Flex 2 Flex 2 continuously tracks your steps, distance, calories burned, and active minutes whenever you wear it. Sync your tracker and check your dashboard to see those stats and all the stats described below. Note: Flex 2 resets at midnight to begin a new day. Tracking sleep Wear your Flex 2 to bed to automatically track both your time spent asleep and your sleep quality. To see your sleep information, sync your tracker when you wake up and check your dashboard.
Each white light represents 25% of your total goal. A blinking light shows the current segment of the goal you’re working on. Tracking exercise The SmartTrack™ feature on Flex 2 automatically tracks walking, running, cycling, aerobic exercises, and more. When you sync Flex 2 after a workout you’ll find your results in the exercise history section of your Fitbit dashboard. By default, SmartTrack detects continuous movement at least 15 minutes in length.

Using Silent Alarms Flex 2 can gently vibrate to wake or alert you with a silent alarm. You can set up to eight alarms to recur every day or on particular days of the week only. When the alarm goes off, simply double tap to dismiss. For more information about customizing and using silent alarms, see help.fitbit.com.
Receiving Call and Text Notifications Over 200 compatible iOS and Android mobile devices let you receive incoming phone call and text message notifications on your Flex 2 when your mobile device is nearby. To determine whether your device supports this feature, go to http://www.fitbit.com/devices. Note that notifications aren’t available with the Fitbit app for Windows 10.
Recognizing incoming notifications If your tracker and mobile device are within 30 feet of each other, a call or text message causes the tracker to show a light pattern and vibrate. For phone calls, Flex 2 vibrates continuously until you answer the call or double tap your tracker. While the phone is ringing you’ll see a blue light and four white lights. Call notification light pattern For text messages Flex 2 vibrates once and repeats three times the light pattern of one blue light and one white light.

When a firmware update is available you’ll see a notification in the Fitbit app prompting you to update. When the update starts, the lights on Flex 2 flash and a progress bar appears in the app. You’ll see a confirmation message in the app when the update is done.
Troubleshooting your Fitbit Flex 2 If you experience one of the following problems, it may be fixed by restarting your tracker: • Not syncing despite successful setup • Not responding to taps despite being charged • Not tracking your steps or other data Note: Restarting your tracker reboots the device but does not delete any data.
