Amazon Fire TV Cube (2nd Generation) Quick Start Guide

What's in the box:

• Amazon Fire TV Cube (2nd generation)
• Alexa Voice Remote (3rd generation)
• Power adaptor
• Ethernet adaptor
• IR extender cable (for controlling components inside a closed cabinet)
• 2 AAA batteries

1. Position your Fire TV Cube

Place Fire TV Cube 30-60 cm away from any speakers, including your TV speakers, with the logo facing where you usually sit.

This device acts like a remote control. It needs to hear you and should be unobstructed, not in a closed cabinet.

(Optional) To control entertainment components that are inside a closed cabinet, use the included IR extender cable.

2. Connect your Fire TV Cube

1. Connect one end of the HDMI cable (not included) into the HDMI port on Fire TV Cube. Connect the other end into the HDMI port on your TV. Remember which HDMI port on your TV, or AVR, was used for the device. You'll need that information later during setup.
2. (Optional) To use an Ethernet cable (not included), connect the Amazon Ethernet Adaptor as shown.
3. Plug the included power cable into Fire TV Cube and then into an electrical socket.
4. Turn on your TV, then select the appropriate input.
5. Set your TV volume to your typical listening level.
6. (Optional) To use the IR extender cable, plug it into the IR port on the back of your Fire TV Cube as shown.

Tips and troubleshooting

Wi-Fi network

Using the included remote control, go to the Settings menu in Fire TV Cube, and select your network from the list displayed.

If your network is hidden, enter your network name.

If you see a lock icon ?, your Wi-Fi network requires a password, so make sure you have it available. This password is not your Amazon account password.

For best performance, use the 5 GHz band on your wireless router if available. Do not place your router in a closed cabinet as it may impact Wi-Fi signal strength.

Wired network

If you're having trouble with your Ethernet connection, verify that the Ethernet cable and adaptor are properly connected, then restart your Fire TV Cube. To understand how to set up Ethernet, go to the Connect Your Fire TV Cube section.
