Getting Started with Echo Plus
Where to put your Echo Plus
Echo Plus works best when placed in a central location, at least
eight inches from any wall. You can put Echo Plus in a variety
of places—on a kitchen counter, the end table in your living
room, or a nightstand.
Talking to Echo Plus
To get the attention of your Echo Plus, simply say "Alexa."
See the Things to Try card to help you get started.
