Connecting EX7000 WiFi Range Extender to Router via Ethernet cable to mesh

Newly purchased AC1900 at firmware V1.0.1.90_1.0.156 which supports Ethernet backhaul but nowhere does any documentation show how to set this up. Where is the documentation for this new feature?

If its the EX7000, when you wire it in and run setup, set it up in access point mode instead of extender mode. that'll allow you to use the wired backhaul
