Confused about FitBit and tracking exercise

I read the FitBit/MFP help sections on this and still don't understand. I do elliptical, treadmill and bike daily...I think if I read right that I should only track the bike on MFP and then FB will pick up the increased activity from the others and log it?

    Elliptical and treadmill are similar to walking so FB will pick up on it. FB will not register riding a bicycle very well so the standard advice is to log it. Try doing one day not logging it and see what the results are. Then manually input the information. Also keep in mind FB is a pedometer at heart. Hope this helps.
