Note: Amazon Alexa Voice Services are only accessible when the sound

bar is in Wi-Fi Mode, also known as Cloud Play. The Mode Indicator Light

followed by a command or question. Here are some examples:

» “Alexa, tell me a joke.”

» “Alexa, what’s in the news?”

» “Alexa, what can you do?”

in standby mode, awaiting a command or question from you. All you need to do

is say “Alexa...”, within range of the speaker’s microphones and she will respond.

on the speaker will change from white to blue. You can also press the

button on

the speaker to manually activate Alexa.

button. The
