Setting up your Fitbit Model FB407
You can set up your Fitbit Model FB407 using your computer or the Fitbit apps for iOS, Android, or
Windows.
Setting up your tracker with the Fitbit app
More than 200 mobile devices and Windows 10 PCs support the Bluetooth 4.0 technology required for
setting up and wirelessly syncing your tracker. To confirm that your device is compatible, visit
http://www.fitbit.com/app.
To get started, find and download the Fitbit app from the Apple App Store (for iOS), Google Play Store
(for Android), or Windows Store (for Windows Phones and Windows 10 tablets and PCs).
Once the app is installed, open it and follow the simple instructions for creating a Fitbit account and
connecting (“pairing”) your tracker to the account. When you’re done with initial setup you’re ready to
get moving.
Setting up your tracker using a Mac or PC and
Fitbit Connect
To set up your Fitbit Model FB407 using your computer, you’ll first install Fitbit Connect. Fitbit Connect
is the software application that connects (“pairs”) your Fitbit Model FB407 to your fitbit.com dashboard,
where you can view your data, log food, and more.
Mac & PC requirements
Software
Mac OS 10.6 or later
Internet Connection
Hardware
USB port
Software
Windows Vista or later
Internet Connection
Hardware
USB port
Installing Fitbit Connect and pairing your tracker
1. Plug the wireless sync dongle into a USB port on your computer.
2. Go to http://www.fitbit.com/setup.
4
3. Scroll down and click the option to download. If the button does not correctly show your type of
computer (for example, if it says “Download for Mac” when you’re on a PC), choose the correct
type, then click the button.
4. When prompted, save the file that appears.
5. Open that file and double-click Install Fitbit Connect.pkg (Mac) or FItbitConnect_Win.exe
(Windows) to open Fitbit Connect installer.
6. Click Continue to move through the installer.
7. When prompted, choose Set up a New Fitbit Device.
8. Follow the onscreen instructions to create a Fitbit account and pair your tracker. Now you’re
ready to get moving.
Syncing your data
Now that Fitbit Connect is installed, your tracker automatically and wirelessly synchronizes its data to
your fitbit.com dashboard every 15 minutes under these conditions:
• Your tracker is within 20 feet of your computer and has new data to upload (meaning that if you
haven’t moved, an automatic sync won’t occur).
• Your computer is powered on, awake, and connected to the Internet.
• Bluetooth is enabled.
You can sync your tracker to your dashboard at any time by clicking the Fitbit Connect icon on your
computer (located near the date and time) and clicking Sync Now.
5
Getting to know your Fitbit Model FB407
Wearing your tracker
Your Fitbit Model FB407 should be worn on your wrist. While it may track stats such as steps and floors
when placed in a pocket or backpack, it is most accurate on the wrist. For all-day wear, your Fitbit Model
FB407 should usually rest a finger’s width below your wrist bone and lay flat (as you’d normally wear a
watch).
As with all heart-rate tracking technology, whether a chest strap or a wrist-based sensor, accuracy is
affected by personal physiology, location of wear, and type of movement. In other words, not every
person will get a perfectly accurate reading with every type of exercise. For best heart rate accuracy keep
these tips in mind:
1. Experiment with wearing the tracker higher on your wrist during exercise. Because blood flow in
your arm increases the farther up you go, moving the tracker up a couple inches can improve the
heart rate signal. Also, many exercises such as spinning cause you to bend your wrist frequently,
which is more likely to interfere with the heart rate signal if the tracker is lower on your wrist.
2. Do not wear your tracker too tight; a tight band restricts blood flow, potentially affecting the heart
rate signal. That being said, the tracker should also be slightly tighter (snug but not constricting)
during exercise than during all-day wear.
3. With high-intensity interval training or other activities where your wrist is moving vigorously and
non-rhythmically, the movement may prevent the sensor from finding an accurate heart rate.
Similarly, with exercises such as weight lifting or rowing, your wrist muscles may flex in such a
way that the band tightens and loosens during exercise. Try relaxing your wrist and staying still
briefly (about 10 seconds), after which you should see an accurate heart rate reading.
Specifying dominant or non-dominant hand
To improve the accuracy of your Fitbit Model FB407, we ask that you specify whether you’re wearing it
on the wrist of your dominant or non-dominant hand. Your dominant hand is the hand you use for most
day-to-day activities, such as writing or throwing a ball. You can specify this setting in the Fitbit app or in
the fitbit.com dashboard.
To make this choice using the fitbit.com dashboard:
1. Log in to fitbit.com.
2. Click the gear icon in the top-right corner of the dashboard.
3. Click Settings.
4. Using the navigation tabs on the left, find and specify the correct setting for Dominant Hand.
5. Sync your Fitbit Model FB407 to update your tracker with the new setting.
a. Click the Fitbit Connect icon near the date and time on your computer.
6
b. Make sure your Fitbit Model FB407 is nearby and click Sync Now.
Using your Fitbit Model FB407 in wet conditions
Your Fitbit Model FB407 is splash-proof, rain-proof, and can withstand even the sweatiest workout. Your
Fitbit Model FB407 is not designed to be worn swimming. We also recommend removing your tracker
before showering. Though the device can withstand the water exposure, wearing your tracker 24/7 does
not allow your skin to breathe. After getting your tracker wet, dry it thoroughly before putting it back on.
For more details, see https://www.fitbit.com/productcare.
Using Quick View
With Quick View you can check the time on your Fitbit Model FB407 without pressing the button. Just
turn your wrist towards you and the time will appear for a few seconds.
To turn Quick View on or off:
1. Log into your fitbit.com dashboard and click the gear icon in the top right corner of the page.
2. Select Settings > Devices. If your account has multiple trackers, make sure the Fitbit Model
FB407 is selected.
3. Turn Quick View on or off.
7
Measuring your heart rate
When your heart beats, your capillaries expand and contract based on blood volume changes. PurePulse™
LED lights on your Fitbit Model FB407 reflect onto the skin to detect blood volume changes, and finely-
tuned algorithms are applied to measure heart rate automatically and continuously.
Default heart rate zones
Heart rate zones can help you optimize your workout by targeting different training intensities. Your
zones are calculated based on a percentage of your estimated maximum heart rate. Fitbit calculates your
maximum heart rate with the common formula of 220 minus your age.
To quickly determine what zone you’re in, take a look at the heart icon:
Out of zone Fat burn Cardio Peak
• When you’re out of zone, which means you’re below 50% of your maximum heart rate, your
heart rate may be elevated but not enough to be considered exercise.
• Fat Burn zone, which means your heart rate is between 50% and 69% of your maximum, is the
low-to-medium intensity exercise zone and may be a good place to start for those new to exercise.
It’s called the Fat Burn zone because a higher percentage of calories are burned from fat, but the
total calorie burn rate is lower.
• Cardio zone, which means your heart rate is between 70% and 84% of your maximum, is the
medium-to-high intensity exercise zone. In this zone you’re pushing yourself but not straining.
For most people this is the exercise zone to target.
• Peak zone, which means your heart rate is 85% of your maximum or higher, is the high-intensity
exercise zone. Peak zone is for short intense sessions that improve performance and speed.
At any time you can check your dashboard to see the amount of time you’ve spent in each zone.
Custom heart rate zones
Instead of using the default heart rate zones you can configure a custom zone. When your heart rate is
above or below your custom zone you’ll see an outline of a heart, and when your heart rate is in your
custom zone you’ll see a solid heart.
To set a custom heart rate zone using the fitbit.com dashboard:
1. Log in to fitbit.com.
2. Click the gear icon in the top-right corner of the dashboard and select Settings.
3. Using the navigation tabs on the left, find Personal Info.
8
4. Find an option to create a custom heart rate zone and then specify the minimum and maximum
heart rate for your custom zone.
5. Sync your Fitbit Model FB407 to update your tracker with the new setting:
a. Click the Fitbit Connect icon located near the date and time on your computer.
b. With your Fitbit Model FB407 nearby, click Sync Now.
At any time you can check your dashboard to see the amount of time you’ve spent in your custom zone.
For more details about heart rate tracking, including links to relevant American Heart Association
information, see our “Heart rate FAQs” article on https://help.fitbit.com.
Battery life and charging
Your Fitbit Model FB407 contains a rechargeable lithium-polymer battery.
With normal use, your fully charged Fitbit Model FB407 should last up to five days before needing a
charge. You can check the level of your battery by logging into fitbit.com and clicking the gear icon on
the top-right corner of the page.
When you press the button on your Fitbit Model FB407 to cycle through your stats, the first screen will
show a low battery icon if there is approximately one day or less of battery life remaining.
If you want to receive a mobile notification or email when your battery is low:
1. Log in to your fitbit.com dashboard.
2. Click the gear icon in the top-right corner of the page and select Settings.
3. Using the navigation tabs on the left, find Notifications and choose which ones you would like to
receive.
4. Click Save.
9
To charge your Fitbit Model FB407, plug the charging cable into the USB port on your computer or an
AC charging adapter and plug the other end into the port on the back of the Fitbit Model FB407.
Charging completely takes 1 to 2 hours.
Care instructions
Clean and dry your Fitbit Model FB407 regularly, particularly under the band. Use skin care products
sparingly on the areas of the skin covered by your Fitbit product. For more information about cleaning
and caring for the band, see https://www.fitbit.com/productcare.
We also recommend occasionally cleaning the charging contacts on the back of your tracker since they
may become obstructed by microscopic dirt or debris that prevents them from making a good connection
to the charger. Use a toothpick or toothbrush to clean the charging contacts; do not scrape them with
anything metal because this may damage the plating and result in corrosion.

uploaded to fitbit.com the next time you sync your tracker.
You can adjust your time zone at www.fitbit.com/user/profile/edit.
11
Tracking sleep
Your Fitbit Model FB407 automatically tracks the hours you sleep and your movement during the night
to help you understand your sleep quality. You don’t need to press any buttons or otherwise enter a “sleep
mode” to begin tracking sleep. Simply wear your Fitbit Model FB407 to bed.
To see your sleep data, sync your tracker and then view the fitbit.com dashboard or Fitbit app. On the
dashboard you can look at the sleep tiles or go to Log > Sleep. In the Fitbit app, tap your sleep tile. If you
choose, you can also set a goal for number of hours slept.
Tracking a daily goal
Your Fitbit Model FB407 is designed to track your progress towards a goal that you define on your
fitbit.com dashboard. A progress bar below your goal keeps you motivated throughout the day. When you
reach your goal your Fitbit Model FB407 will vibrate and flash to celebrate.
By default, the daily goal is set to 10,000 steps per day. You can set a daily goal for steps taken, distance
traveled, calories burned, or floors climbed.
Changing your goal

identifies the type of exercise you’re doing, and records the exercise. You can lower the SmartTrack
detection setting to 10 minutes, or increase it as high as 90 minutes.
13
Automatically Tracking Exercise
The SmartTrack feature automatically recognizes and records your runs and other exercise for you, even
when you forget. Whenever you wear your Fitbit Model FB407 and participate in any continuous, high-
movement activity of 15 minutes or more, including walking, running, outdoor biking, and elliptical,
Fitbit Model FB407 detects your activity and automatically records it for you. When you sync your Fitbit

SmartTrack settings to detect exercises and activities anywhere from 10-90 minutes.
SmartTrack does not record more precise exercise stats. If you want to track a specific exercise with
precise stats, you should use exercise mode on your Fitbit Model FB407.
14
Manually Tracking Exercise
As mentioned above, your Fitbit Model FB407 automatically tracks several stats and exercises throughout
the day. Using the exercise mode feature, you can choose to track precise stats for a specific activity as
well.
Exercise mode works similar to the trip mode on a car’s odometer. For example, if you put your tracker in
exercise mode and use an elliptical machine, you can view stats measured for that exercise, such as heart
rate and calories burned. When you end exercise mode and sync your data, you’ll see an entry for a
“Workout” exercise on your dashboard. The entry provides a summary of the activity's stats as well as a
minute-by-minute graph.
