Setup Guide

1. Charging the Smartwatch

Before first use, fully charge your smartwatch. Connect the magnetic charging cable to the charging points on the back of the watch and plug the USB end into a power adapter (not included) or a computer's USB port. A full charge typically takes about 2 hours.

2. App Download and Installation

Scan the QR code in the manual or on the watch screen (if available) to download the companion app, or search for the app name (usually specified in the quick start guide) in your smartphone's app store (Google Play Store for Android, Apple App Store for iOS).

3. Pairing with Your Smartphone

  1. Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your smartphone.
  2. Open the downloaded app and follow the on-screen instructions to create an account or log in.
  3. In the app, navigate to the device pairing section (often labeled "Device," "My Device," or "Add Device").
  4. Select your LIGE Smartwatch (e.g., "FV18-A" or a similar name) from the list of available devices.
  5. Confirm the pairing request on both your phone and the smartwatch if prompted.
  6. For Bluetooth call functionality, you may need to pair the watch separately as an audio device in your phone's Bluetooth settings after the initial app pairing. Look for a device name like "LIGE-Audio" or similar.
