mobile app to access Nike+ where you can track your performance, see results and get motivated
to do more.

one end of the cable into Nike+ FuelBand and the other end into your
computer).

Enter your height and weight so Nike+ FuelBand can accurately calculate your
daily results. Indicate which wrist you’ll wear it on so the LED display orients
correctly.

your daily goal any time (see page #).
