Alexa Ready
Alexa is Amazon's cloud-based voice service available
on many voice controlled assistant devices. By means
of the Alexa Built-in and Works With Alexa features you
can use your TV as an Alexa device and control the
functions of your TV with Alexa.
Alexa Built-in
You can use your TV as an Alexa device. In order to
do this, a Microphone Box(*) will be required. After
connecting your Microphone Box to your TV the setup
process should be completed. The setup can be carried
out in the ways described below.
(*) The Microphone Box can be purchased separately if not
supplied with the TV. For more information contact your local
dealer or retail outlet where you bought your TV.
• Connect your Microphone Box to your TV
• Use the Alexa Built-in option in the Settings>Sys-
tem>Voice Assistant menu
• Carry out first time installation on your TV. The setup
wizard will be displayed after the installation process
is completed
The wizard will guide you through the setup process.
Refer to the user manual of the Microphone Box for
detailed information.
Alexa Home Screen
Once the setup is complete, Alexa Home Screen
feature will be integrated. This feature is an ambient
screen which appears when no user activity is
detected. A background image, time and date
information and voice command suggestions will be
displayed on the Alexa Home Screen.
You can use the Alexa Home Screen option in the
Settings>System>Voice Assistant>Alexa Built-in
menu to configure the settings of this feature. You can
set to one of the inactivity periods to enable or set to
Off to disable.
Alexa Home Screen is displayed only when web brow-
ser or any other video on demand application except
Netflix is running. It appears when no user activity is
detected during the predefined inactivity period unless
a media playback is in progress. Watching a movie, for
example, is not considered as user inactivity.
You can press remote control buttons to make it
disappear. As an exception you can use the Volume
+/- buttons to control volume level even when Alexa
Home Screen is running.
Works With Alexa
You can control the functions of your TV with Alexa.
In order to do this, the setup process should be
completed. The setup can be carried out in the ways
described below.
• Use the Works With Alexa option in the Set-
tings>System>Voice Assistant menu
• Carry out first time installation on your TV. The setup
wizard will be displayed after the installation process
is completed
Setup process
The wizard will guide you through the setup process.
• If you carry out first time installation on your TV,
the Alexa setup wizard will be displayed after the
installation process is completed. On the first screen
highlight Learn More option and press OK. On the
next screen you will be informed about the feature.
Highlight Start and press OK to proceed.
If you skip the setup wizard after the first time ins-
tallation you can use the Works With Alexa option
in the Settings>System>Voice Assistant menu to
carry out the setup later manually. On the first screen
you will be informed about the feature. Highlight Start
and press OK to proceed.
• An authentication code will be created and displayed
on the screen. Use your computer or any other device
with internet access to go to the internet address
(URL) shown on the screen. You will be directed
to a page where you can sign in to your Amazon
account first, if you are not already signed in. Then
you will be directed to a page where you can enter
the authentication code you see on the TV and link
your TV to your Amazon account.
• If the linking process was successful you will be
asked to determine a name for your TV, called
'Friendly Name'(FN). A 'Friendly Name' is a name
that reminds you of your TV, such as 'Living Room
TV', 'Kitchen TV', 'Dining Room TV', etc. Choose an
easy-to-say name. You will say this name to tell Alexa
which TV to control. When you are done, highlight
OK and press OK.
• Examples about the use of the feature will be
displayed on the next screen. Press OK to finish
the setup.
If you carried out the setup after the first time instal-
lation you will return to the first screen of the setup
wizard when you press OK. In that case press Exit
or highlight Setup Later and press OK in order to
exit the setup.
Once the setup is complete, you will be able to control
the functions of your TV with Alexa.
Note: Make sure that the devices are connected to the internet.
