Get started
Meet Fitbit Luxe, the fashion-forward fitness and wellness tracker designed to help you take control
of your holistic health and wellness.
What's in the box
Your Luxe box includes:
Tracker with small band
Charging cable Additional large band
(color and material varies)
The detachable bands on Luxe come in a variety of colors and materials, sold separately.
Charge your tracker
A fully-charged Luxe has a battery life of up to 5 days. Battery life and charge cycles vary with use and
other factors; actual results will vary.
To charge Luxe:
1. Plug the charging cable into the USB port on your computer, a UL-certified USB wall charger,
or another low-energy charging device.
2. Hold the other end of the charging cable near the port on the back of the tracker until it
attaches magnetically. Make sure the pins on the charging cable align with the port on the
back of your tracker.

7
Charging fully takes about 1-2 hours. While Luxe charges, double-tap the screen to turn it on and
check the battery level. Swipe right on the battery screen to use Luxe. A fully charged tracker shows
a solid battery icon.
Set up Luxe
Set up Luxe with the Fitbit app. The Fitbit app is compatible with most popular phones. See
fitbit.com/devices to check if your phone is compatible.
To get started:
1. Download the Fitbit app:
⚫Apple App Store for iPhones ⚫ Google Play Store for Android phones
2. Install the app, and open it.

8
⚫If you already have a Fitbit account, log in to your account tap the
Today tab your profile picture Set Up a Device.
⚫If you don't have a Fitbit account, tap Join Fitbit to be guided through a series of
questions to create a Fitbit account.
3. Continue to follow the on-screen instructions to connect Luxe to your account.
When you're done with setup, read through the guide to learn more about your new tracker and then
explore the Fitbit app.
See your data in the Fitbit app
Open the Fitbit app on your phone to view your activity, health metrics, and sleep data; log food and
water; participate in challenges; and more.
Unlock Fitbit Premium
Fitbit Premium is your personalized resource in the Fitbit app that helps you stay active, sleep well,
and manage stress. A Premium subscription includes programs tailored to your health and fitness
goals, personalized insights, hundreds of workouts from fitness brands, guided meditations, and
more.
Luxe includes a 6-month Fitbit Premium membership for eligible customers in certain countries.
Wear Luxe
Wear Luxe 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 12.
Placement for all-day wear vs. exercise
When you're not exercising, wear Luxe a finger's width above your wrist bone.
In general, it's always important to give your wrist a break on a regular basis by removing your tracker
for around an hour after extended wear. We recommend removing your tracker while you shower.
Although you can shower while wearing your tracker, not doing so reduces the potential for exposure
to soaps, shampoos, and conditioners, which can cause long-term damage to your tracker and may
cause skin irritation.

9
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. Many exercises, such as bike riding or weight lifting, cause you to bend your wrist
frequently, which could interfere with the heartrate signal if the tracker is lower on your wrist.
⚫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).
Handedness
For greater accuracy, you must specify whether you wear Luxe on your dominant or non-dominant
hand. Your dominant hand is the one you use for writing and eating. To start, the Wrist setting is set
to non-dominant. If you wear Luxe on your dominant hand, change the Wrist setting in the Fitbit app:

10
From the Today tab in the Fitbit app, tap your profile picture Luxe tile Wrist
Dominant.
Wear and care tips
⚫Clean your band and wrist regularly with a soap-free cleanser. ⚫ If your tracker gets wet,
remove and dry it completely after your activity. ⚫ Take your tracker off from time to time.
⚫Your tracker may show minor wear over time. Always clean it with a soft cloth and avoid
contact with hard surfaces.
Change the band
Luxe 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. For band measurements,
see "Band size" on page 48.
Remove a band
1. Turn over Luxe and find the band latches.
2. To release the latch, use your fingernail to press the flat button toward the band.
3. Gently pull the band away from the tracker to release it.
4. Repeat on the other side.

11
Attach a band
To attach a band, press it into the end of the tracker until you hear a click and it snaps into place. The
band with the buckle attaches to the top of the tracker.
