GETTING TO KNOW YOUR FITBIT VERSA LITE EDITIONTM

Congratulations on receiving your new Versa Lite! This easy-to-use smartwatch is packed with features that will inspire you to reach your fitness goals. Here's what you'll receive in the box:

SETTING UP YOUR VERSA LITE

Before you get started, make sure that:

  • You take time to fully review the safety information featured on www.fitbit.com/safety.
  • Your smartphone's Bluetooth® wireless technology is turned on. (Go to the FAQs section of this guide to see more information on turning on Bluetooth for your smartphone.)
  • You have an internet connection through Wi-Fi or cellular data.
  • Your Versa Lite's battery shows a charge of at least 75%. If not, use the included cable to charge up the Versa Lite.

*NOTE: The Versa Lite is not intended to provide medical or scientific data.

Get Ready to Meet Your Coach
In the next few days, you'll receive an email with instructions on how to schedule your first call with your personal health coach. Let us know if you don't receive it within a week or so.

Join A Guided Program
Based on your goals, schedule, and fitness level, your Fitbit app builds customized programs to help you move more, sleep well, and eat better. Each guided program lasts a few weeks and keeps you accountable with check-ins and reminders.

We recommend starting with the Intro to Healthy Habits guided program. With this program, you'll:

  • See how your current stats compare to your goals.
  • Get a comprehensive picture of your strengths and where you may need extra guidance.

Join now by tapping the "Discover" tab in the Fitbit app, then tap "Guided Programs." From here, scroll through to select a guided program of your choice.

Check Out the Fitbit Community
As part of the Level2 experience, you have access to an exclusive community group in the Fitbit app. In this community, you're able to share inspirational moments from your daily routine, including exercise summaries, daily activity stats, photos, and more to receive encouragement and celebrate progress with other participants.

Join now by tapping "Community" in the lower right of the Fitbit app's Today screen. Then, tap "Groups" at the top of the screen. On the groups page, you should see the Level2 Group under the "Closed Groups" section--tap on it to get started.

FAQs

WHY IS MY SMARTWATCH NOT CHARGING??
We recommend plugging your charging cable into a USB port on your computer or other low-energy device. Please only use the charging cable that came with your smartwatch. When your smartwatch is properly secured to the charger, the percent charged will appear on the smartwatch screen. However, if your charging cable is dirty, if the smartwatch is not securely connected to the charging cable, or if the tracker is wet, your smartwatch will not charge properly.

WHAT DO I DO IF I FORGOT THE EMAIL ADDRESS I USED TO ENROLL IN THE PROGRAM?
If you forgot the email address you used during enrollment, instead of clicking "Log In" on the Fitbit app's home screen, click "Join Fitbit" to create a new account. Once you change your email address, be sure to use that same email address to log in to the Fitbit app. Note: Once you pair your device, you will see an invitation to re-enroll in Level2.

WHAT DO I DO IF I FORGOT MY FITBIT ACCOUNT PASSWORD??

  1. Log out of the Fitbit app (in case you're logged in).
  2. Tap or click Log In > Forgot your password?
  3. Enter your email address and tap or click Send Reset Email. An email will be sent to the email address you entered. If you don't receive the email, it's possible that you entered your email address incorrectly or the email went to your Spam or Junk folder. Try completing this step again and check all your email folders. If you still have not received the password reset email, please call Fitbit support at 1-844-534-8248.
  4. Click the link in the password reset email. This link takes you to our mobile website. Enter your new password and tap or click Set.
  5. Return to the Fitbit app and log in using your new password.

I'M HAVING TROUBLE CONNECTING MY SMARTWATCH TO A WI-FI NETWORK.
Setting up your smartwatch with Wi-Fi is optional, but recommended since it may help to speed up the operations of your Fitbit smartwatch. If you have trouble connecting your smartwatch to Wi-Fi, first make sure that your Wi-Fi network is working correctly and that your network type is compatible with your smartwatch. For best results, connect your smartwatch to your home or work Wi-Fi network. Wi-Fi won't work on your smartwatch when the battery level is below approximately 25%.

HOW DO I EARN PROGRAM REWARDS??
By participating in Level2, you can earn rewards every day for hitting certain walking goals. Each day you reach a goal, you'll receive a reward that's applied to a gift card that we'll send to you. Walking goals and their rewards vary from state to state.

  1. Take 10,000 steps in a day.
  2. Take a ten-minute walk after a meal.

For more details, see the "Getting Started" letter that accompanied this guide.
