Setting up your Fitbit Electron

that support Bluetooth 4.0 technology. To see if your mobile device is
compatible with your Electron, 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 Electron 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.

Fitbit.com account.
b. Select Existing User to log into your existing Fitbit.com account and
replace an existing device with your Electron.
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. Choose Electron and follow the onscreen instructions to power on your Electron.

Getting to know your Fitbit Electron

About Heart rate on the Fitbit Electron
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.
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
From the clock screen on your Electron, 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
Tracking with the Fitbit Electron
NOTE: Electron also tracks stats for four types of Runs and up to seven types of
Exercise. See Tracking Runs with the Fitbit Electron on page 9 and Tracking
Exercise with the Fitbit Electron on page 11.
Tracking default stats
Your Electron automatically tracks the following stats:
• Steps taken
• Calories burned
• Floors climbed
• Distance traveled
• Current heart rate
• Hours slept

To scroll through your stats, display the Clock screen and swipe left or right.
Tracking sleep
Your Electron automatically tracks the hours you sleep and your movement during the
night to help you understand your sleep quality.
To view last night’s sleep summary, log into Fitbit.com and view the sleep tile on the
dashboard or go to Log > Sleep. 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 Electron 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. A progress bar below your goal keeps you
motivated throughout the day. When you reach your goal your Electron will vibrate and
flash to celebrate.

Once you’ve chosen which goal you want to track, you can set a specific value for that
goal on the Fitbit.com dashboard page or by using the Fitbit app for mobile. For
example, instead of the default 10,000 steps per day, you may want your goal to be
15,000 per day. To change your goal value using your dashboard:
1. Log into your Fitbit.com dashboard.
2. Find the tile that corresponds to your goal.
3. Click the gear icon in the lower left corner of the tile.

To charge your Electron, plug the charging cable into the USB port on your computer
and plug the other end into the port on the back of the Electron.
Charging completely takes an average of one and a half to two hours.
Memory
When you sync your Electron, your daily stats, run and exercise data is uploaded to
your Fitbit.com dashboard. Your Electron holds detailed minute-by-minute information
for the most recent 7 days, and up to 30 days of daily summaries.
Your daily stats include steps taken, distance traveled, calories burned, floors climbed,
heart rate, and sleep tracked.
Sync your Electron regularly to have the most detailed data available to view on your
Fitbit.com dashboard.

zone selected in your personal settings on your Fitbit.com account. You can
adjust your time zone at http://www.fitbit.com/user/profile/edit.
Though your stats reset to zero at midnight this does not delete the previous
21
day’s data; that data will be uploaded to your Fitbit.com dashboard the next
time you sync your Electron.
