What’s in this document
We get you started by connecting Flyer with an audio device. After customizing the headphones to find the best fit, you’ll be ready to listen to audio and receive phone calls. Next, we explain how to adjust your settings, connect an additional device, and get the most out of Flyer. To find more information, tips, and troubleshooting, please browse our comprehensive articles at help.fitbit.com.
Setting up Fitbit Flyer
You must connect the Flyer to a Bluetooth®-enabled device. After connecting Flyer, you’ll be able to play audio and receive phone calls through your headphones.
Powering on
To power on the Flyer, press and hold the Power button until the LED lights up. If the Flyer does not turn on, it may need to be charged first. For instructions, see the Charging Flyer.
Connecting to devices
To pair Flyer to a device, you must put the headphones in pairing mode, indicated by a pulsing blue light.
The first time you turn on Flyer, it will automatically be in pairing mode, and you can skip to step 2.
To pair Flyer to a new device:
- Press and hold the Power button for 4 seconds when turning on the Flyer, and wait until the LED pulses blue. If you release the Power button before the Flyer is in pairing mode, the Flyer turns on, but won’t pair to your device. If the Flyer doesn’t enter pairing mode, turn it off by holding the power button for 1 second, and try this step again.
- Open the Bluetooth menu on your device and select Flyer. You’ll hear an audio notification through the headphones letting you know Flyer and your device are paired.
When you pair Flyer to a new device, it is stored in Flyer’s memory. The flyer automatically attempts to connect to this device if it’s near the headphones when you turn them on. Flyer can store up to 8 Bluetooth-enabled devices, such as phones, tablets, and smartwatches.
If Flyer already has 8 devices in its memory and you pair a new device, it forgets the first device you paired. For more information about connecting Flyer to your devices, as well as troubleshooting tips, see help.fitbit.com.
Connecting to Fitbit Ionic
If you own a Fitbit Ionic watch, pair Flyer to listen to audio such as music, audiobooks, and podcasts. To pair Flyer, press and hold the Power button for 4 seconds when turning on the headphones, and wait until the LED pulses blue, which indicates Flyer is in pairing mode.
Changing the language
Flyer provides voice prompts for various notifications such as powering on and off, the current battery level, and how many devices the headphones are currently connected to. Flyer defaults to English; to change the language of these prompts, press the Power button and the Select button at the same time. Press the same 2 buttons again to switch to the next language.
Language selection is only available while your audio is paused and you are not on a phone call. The supported languages, in order, are:
- English
- French
- Italian
- German
- Spanish
- Chinese
- Korean
- Japanese
- No language (tones only)
Customizing your fit
The flyer comes with ear tips, wings, and fins. Attach the ear tips and either wings or fins before inserting the headphones into your ears to ensure a secure, comfortable fit.
Choosing ear tips
For optimal comfort and sound quality, you should select an ear tip that fits snugly in your ear canal. Flyer comes with 3 sizes (small, medium, and large) of ear tips; we recommend trying all 3 options to see which size works best for you. Choose the ear tip that seals the headphones with your ear canal to reduce outside noise and provide the best overall sound quality.
NOTE: You may want to choose a different-sized ear tip for your right and left ears.
To attach an ear tip, hold the earbud in one hand and the ear tip in the other hand. Press the ear tip fully onto the stem of the earbud until it fits snugly against it. To remove an ear tip, pinch it between your fingers and pull it off.
Choosing wings or fins
Flyer comes with 2 pairs of wings and 2 pairs of fins in small and large sizes. We recommend trying both sets of wings and fins to determine which provides the most comfortable and secure fit. Both wings and fins should tuck into the fold of your ear to keep the headphones in place.
To attach a wing or fin:
- Slide the bottom edge of the wing or fin into the rounded slot of the earbud.
- Press down on the top of the wing or fin to insert it under the metal cap. It snaps into place when inserted correctly.
To remove a wing or fin, pinch the base of it between your fingers and pull away from the earbud to slide it out of the rounded slot.
Wearing your headphones
After you select the correct attachments, we recommend wearing a Flyer behind your neck with the controls on the right side. Tighten the sliding cable fastener to keep the headphones secure.
For more information on finding the best fit and wearing a Flyer, see help.fitbit.com.
Using the controls
The flyer has 3 buttons, located on the control box. Use these buttons to control your audio and phone calls.
Volume
Use the Up and Down buttons to control the volume of audio and phone calls, as shown in the table below.
Microphones
If you connect Flyer to a phone with a voice assistant such as Siri, Google Assistant, or Cortana, when your phone is nearby you can access the voice assistant with Flyer’s microphones. Access to a voice assistant is not available while you’re on a phone call. For instructions on accessing your phone’s voice assistant, see the table below.
Once you turn on a voice assistant, the microphone in Flyer picks up your voice, allowing you to use it as if you were speaking directly into your phone. For more information about accessing a voice assistant with Flyer, see help.fitbit.com.
Power boost
Use a power boost to enhance the sound quality of your music. To turn this setting on or off, briefly press the Up and Down buttons at the same time.
You’ll hear an audio notification telling you whether you turned the power boost on or off. Flyer uses this power boost setting until you change it again. Turning the power boost off helps conserve battery power. For more information about power boost, see help.fitbit.com.
Audio playback
To listen to audio, press play on the device Flyer is connected to. After the audio starts, use the Flyer to control it, as shown in the table below.
Phone calls
If the Flyer is connected to a phone, use the Flyer to answer, dismiss, or switch between calls. If audio is playing on your phone when a call comes in, the audio is automatically paused so you can answer your call. For instructions on how to control phone calls from your Flyer, see the table below.
Battery life and charging
Checking your current battery level
When you turn Flyer on or off, you’ll see the battery-level indicator light and hear an audio notification.
While the Flyer is on, check the current battery level at any time by briefly pressing the Power button.
On many devices, the Flyer’s battery level is shown on the connected device. If Flyer is connected to Ionic, you can check the battery level on the watch’s shortcut screen (swipe right from the clock screen). When the battery level is Low or Very Low, the LED changes to red, and a voice prompt notifies you that the battery is low. For information on what the color of the LED represents, see the table below.
Charging Flyer
To charge the Flyer, plug the Micro-USB 2.0 charging cable into the Flyer’s charging port, located underneath the cover, and then plug the charging cable into the USB port on your computer or a UL-certified USB wall charger.
When the Flyer is charging, the LED changes color depending on the current charge level. Your headphones are fully charged when the LED is white. Charging fully may take up to 2 hours. For information on what the color of the LED represents while Flyer is charging, see the table below.
Wear and care
A flyer may require occasional cleaning. For instructions and more information, see https://www.fitbit.com/productcare.
