Step 1: Check the contents of your box

1. Your tree will come in various combinations depending on the size. (Figure 1)
2. A metal tree stand with 3 eyebolts. (Figure 2)
3. Control box and power cord with adaptor. (Figure 3)
4. “Ornament” with voice activated command list. (Figure 4)
5. Number of spare bulbs for each: 4 (5ft) /6 (6.5ft) /10 (7 ft) /12 (9 ft) (Figure 5). These can be found in the poly bag attached to the end of the light strand inside the tree.
   

Step 2: Stand Assembly ( Figure 6 ~ 8 )

Place the stand in your desired location as once the tree is fully assembled it may be too difficult to move and relocate.

1. Open the tree stand to form an “X”. (Figure 6 and Figure 7)
2. Align the threaded holes to insert each eyebolt. Make only a few clockwise turns leaving room to insert bottom section. (Figure 8)
   

Step 3-A Tree Assembly (Figure 9 ~ 11)

1. Locate the bottom section (B or C depending on tree size) and insert into the top of tree stand. (Figure 9).
2. Fully tighten the 3 pins into place. Secure the tree base firmly to the tree stand. (Figure 10).
3. Insert the remaining section (A or B+A depending on tree size) in the proper order. (Figure 11)
   

IMPORTANT TREE SET UP TIPS:

1. Shake the tree well after assembly to ensure the branches are extended.
2. Some shaping of the tree may be required for best appearance.
3. Spare bulbs are included in a small bag inside the tree. Remove from the tree and keep in case replacement is needed.
   

Step 3-B Extend all branches and twigs and shape until the tree looks full.

Step 4: Connect Controller and AC Power Adapter (Figure 12).

Attach the power cord with adaptor to the control box, plug the adaptor into an AC power source.

   • Make sure that all devices have the most updated Wi-Fi password.
   • Check the distance to your Alexa smart speaker
   • Check that your device is within 30 ft. (9 m) of your Christmas Tree.
   • Check your software version
   • Check that your Alexa device and the Alexa app have the latest software version.
2. I can’t get my Christmas Tree barcode to scan successfully.
   • Make sure that there is enough light in the area for the bar code to be detected.
   • If that does not work, then during the Alexa mobile app setup process, select “Don’t Have a Barcode” and follow the on-screen instructions.
3. My Christmas Tree stopped working with Alexa.
   • Try a power cycle: Unplug your Christmas Tree from the outlet, and then plug it back in.
   • Perform a factory reset : To reset your Alexa Tree: press and hold the button on the control box for 10 seconds. Indication of action done: 3 flashes of white light. Then follow the instructions below.
   • Open the “Amazon Alexa” application.
   • Go to the settings menu.
   • Select “Add Device”
   • Select “Christmas Tree” and follow the on-screen instructions.
4. I can only turn my Christmas Tree On and Off with Alexa.
   • Although the Alexa tree can be added to a group, the color and function selections will not work using the group name.
   • Color and Function can only be selected by using the utterance “Christmas Tree.”
5. Alexa is not responding to some but not all of my utterances
   • Alexa will not work if you have more than one Alexa device with a similar name
   • Rename one of the devices. It is recommended to always store the tree in a cool, dry location protected from excessive exposure to heat or sunlight.
6. Should a bulb get out of color sync in respect to the light set color selected by Alexa Command, this can be readily fixed by switching out the individual bulb with the replacement bulb provided.
