2 Setting up your Fitbit Surge To set up your Surge, install the Fitbit Connect app on your computer. NOTE: If you prefer, you can set up and sync your Surge using select mobile devices that support Bluetooth 4.0 technology. To see if your mobile device is compatible with your Surge, visit http://www.fitbit.com/devices. If your mobile device is not compatible for syncing via Bluetooth 4.0, you can still use the mobile Fitbit app to view your data and track your progress; you’ll just need to set up and sync using a Mac or PC. For instructions on setting up your compatible Surge using your mobile device, go to https://www.fitbit.com/product/mobile, choose your mobile platform, and view the FAQs for the Fitbit mobile app. <<As of this writing (8/5/14) Windows phone is not shown on the mobile app page –brs>> Mac & PC requirements <<ANY CHANGES?

Select Existing User to log into your existing Fitbit.com account and replace an existing device with your Surge. <<To do: revise to add info on adding tracker instead of replacing; maybe xref to detailed info. Remove after sending doc to localization, bring it back when multi-tracker support is implemented. –brs>> 4. Enter or confirm your personal information and click Next. This information personalizes your Fitbit experience and improves the accuracy of your calorie burn and distance data. By default this personal information is visible only to your friends, but you can adjust your privacy settings from your Fitbit.com account to control what information is shared with others. 5.

6 About Heart rate on the Fitbit Surge aka BPM (beats per minute) HR settings auto, on, off Guidelines as to accuracy of HR You can see your current heart rate (BPM) at any time, from either the clock screen or while running or exercising. Copied from “Tracking heart rate with Charge HR” 8/6, edited See https://wiki.fitbit.com/display/prdct/1.1.1.6+Device+Heart+Rate+Display and https://wiki.fitbit.com/display/prdct/2.1.1.2+In-Run <<test this after next FWUP –brs>> From the clock screen on your Surge, scroll to the heart rate screen. By default, the appearance of the heart changes depending on your heart rate zone: Below Zone Zone 1 Zone 2 Zone 3 Heart rate zones are calculated using the maximum recommended heart rate for your age. If you’re below Zone 1, your resting heart rate is between 30 to 60 BPM, or 0 to 49% of your maximum. Zone 1 represents fat burn, when your heart rate is at 50 to 69% of maximum. Zone 2 is cardio, where your heart rate is at 70 to 84% of maximum. Lastly, Zone 3 is performance, meaning your heart rate is at 85 to 100% of maximum. Instead of using these default zones, you have the option of configuring a custom heart rate zone. Simply log in to your dashboard and click the gear icon on the upper right. In the Body Info section on the Settings page you can select the minimum and maximum heart rate for your custom zone.
7 About GPS on the Fitbit Surge Used by some types of Run and Exercise. List a few examples: free run, lap run, hiking, cycling. Some runs and exercise types search for GPS when you start. From Sierra: Choosing quick start lets you start your run, the device will continue looking for a GPS fix. However, if you start running before there is a fix (regardless of whether you are in the run-start screen or the searching for GPS screen) it will take longer to get a fix and the probability of finding a fix will go down. If users want to use GPS during their run they should wait to get a fix before starting to run. If you’re on the searching for GPS screen you’ll see a “Found GPS” message. If you’re on the run-app screen the "(P)" after your pace will go away (not final UI). No way to disable it. <<correct? –brs>> Significant effect on battery life. Link to new help article on troubleshooting GPS problems.
8 Tracking with the Fitbit Surge Intro. NOTE: Surge also tracks stats for four types of Runs and up to seven types of Exercise. See Tracking Runs with the Fitbit Surge on page 10 and Tracking Exercise with the Fitbit Surge on page 12. Tracking default stats Your Surge automatically tracks the following stats: <<confirm order –brs>>  Steps taken  Calories burned  Floors climbed  Distance traveled  Current heart rate  Hours slept  Quality of sleep To scroll through your stats, display the Clock screen and swipe left or right. Tracking sleep Your Surge automatically tracks the hours you sleep and your movement during the night to help you understand your sleep quality.

You can also view your sleep summary on your mobile dashboard if you’re using the Fitbit app for iOS, Android, or Windows phone. Tracking a goal Your Surge is designed to track your progress towards a main goal that you define on your Fitbit.com dashboard. The goal can be set for steps taken, distance traveled, calories burned, or floors climbed. <<Removed active minutes; they won’t be displayed on the Surge, but apparently you can still set it online as of 7/29. Researching how to explain this or if they will be removed from web site – brs>> A progress bar below your goal keeps you motivated throughout the day.
