Wear Charge 4 Place Charge 4 around your wrist. If you need to attach a different size band, or if you purchased another band, see the instructions in "Change the band" on page 13. Placement for all-day wear vs. exercise When you're not exercising, wear Charge 4 a finger's width above your wrist bone. For optimized heart-rate tracking while exercising: During a workout, experiment with wearing your tracker a bit higher on your wrist for an improved fit.
Wear your tracker on top of your wrist, and make sure the back of the device is in contact with your skin. Consider tightening your band before a workout and loosening it when you’re done. The band should be snug but not constricting (a tight band restricts blood flow, potentially affecting the heart-rate signal).
Change the band Charge 4 comes with a small band attached and an additional large, bottom band in the box. Both the top and bottom bands can be swapped with accessory bands, sold separately on fitbit.com. For band measurements, see "Band size" on page 51.
Attach a new band 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's attached to the tracker.
