  4. Follow the instructions in the installation wizard. The installation may take up to an hour.
  5. Once the process is complete, the firmware has been updated and you can use the device as usual.

Perform the update using the Fitbit Dashboard

Make sure your dongle is connected to a USB port on your PC for wireless syncing. You also need to confirm that you have the latest version of Fitbit Connect installed under "Fitbit Connect" > "Open Main Menu" > "Troubleshooting".
  1. Now go to FitBit Connect and click "Check for device update" in the main menu.
  2. Log in with your account details. Das Gerät wird nun synchronisiert.
