Use the Home app:


If you don't see the setup screen*, you can manually set up HomePod mini or HomePod. Open the Home app, tap the Add button , then tap Add Accessory. Tap Don't Have a Code or Can't Scan at the bottom, then tap HomePod and follow the onscreen instructions.

Your Wi-Fi router needs to be set up with WPA/WPA2 wireless security and with any client/access point/wireless isolation/security feature turned off. These features prevent devices on your network from talking to each other, blocking traffic necessary when setting up HomePod.
