Important tips to avoid installation issues:

• Make sure that you choose the correct watch from the list of available watch models when you start the installation. Some watches in the list can look similar and choosing the incorrect model will result in a setup failure. 
• Make sure that your mobile device is compatible with ScanWatch Light
• Make sure that your mobile device has access to the internet 
• Make sure that your mobile device remains unlocked and Withings App is always in the foreground during the installation process
• Make sure that your ScanWatch Light remains close to your mobile device during the installation process
• Make sure that you pair your ScanWatch Light from within the Withings App and not from within your phone’s Bluetooth menu
• You may have to disable Bluetooth on any nearby devices except the one with which you are attempting to connect
• If ScanWatch Light has already been paired with your phone prior to installation, remove it from your mobile device's Bluetooth settings. To do so, go to the Settings of your mobile device, select Bluetooth and locate ScanWatch Light XX in the list of devices. Select the small icon to the right and select the option to Forget/Unpair the device.
• Android users may have to change the location permissions of the app to be able to connect via BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy). To do so, go to Settings > Apps > Withings App > Permissions and enable Location

Your mobile device is having trouble finding your ScanWatch Light via Bluetooth

1. Make sure your ScanWatch Light is within 1 m/3-4 ft of your mobile device to ensure the strongest connection.

   If it doesn't, please charge your watch. If it displays the current time instead of SETUP and a Bluetooth logo, perform a factory reset.
3. Disable and re-enable Bluetooth on your mobile device.
4. Restart your mobile device.

2. Delete the Withings App and reinstall it.
3. Log back in to Withings App, and attempt to configure the watch again.

The Withings App says that the PIN or pairing code is incorrect

If this message is displayed, it means that your mobile device needs to be restarted. Please follow the proper procedure for your specific mobile device to restart it and retry the installation process. 

The watch screen shows an 'X' icon

This generally occurs because your watch was previously configured on your mobile device, but it has not yet been forgotten from Bluetooth. Please make sure that the watch is forgotten from your mobile device’s Bluetooth settings. To do so, go to the Settings of your mobile device, select Bluetooth and then locate ScanWatch Light XX in the list of devices. Select the small icon to the right and select the option to Forget/Unpair the device.

A vertical bar appears on the display of your ScanWatch Light

A vertical bar may appear on the display of your ScanWatch Light right after the setup. If this happens, press and hold the side button of your ScanWatch Light for 15 seconds. 

Your watch cycles through different screens on its own (also known as 'Demo Mode')

Press and hold the button for 5 seconds until 'Demo Mode Exit' is displayed, then press and hold the button until the watch shows 'Reset in 5.' Keep pressing the button until it shows 'Reset in 0' (it will count down with each press). This will reset the watch to allow you to reinstall it.

Note: If you previously installed the ScanWatch Light on your mobile device, please make sure that the watch is forgotten from your mobile device’s Bluetooth settings. To do so, go to the Settings of your mobile device, select Bluetooth and then locate ScanWatch Light XX in the list of devices. Select the small icon to the right and select the option to Forget/Unpair the device.
