It’s incredibly easy to pair your Amazon Fire TV Stick remote, because you’ll be pairing it with the Fire TV Stick it came with, or another Amazon device. You don’t need to directly pair it with your new TV, because the remote will control the television functions through the Amazon device connected to it via HDMI. That means you won’t have to hunt down product codes or jump through any other hoops like you used to have to when pairing third-party remotes to TV sets. Here’s how to pair your Amazon Fire TV Stick remote to a Fire TV device (and, by extesion, your TV):
- Make sure your Amazon Fire TV Stick is both plugged into a power source, as well as into one of the HDMI inputs on your TV.
- Check that the batteries in the remote are new or still functioning.
- Turn on your TV and select the HDMI input for your Amazon Fire TV Stick.
- Press the Home button on your Fire TV Stick remote, and hold it for 10 seconds. The light in the corner of your remote will rapidly blink, which means it’s pairing.
- After a few moments, when the light stops blinking, the pairing will be complete.
Once the pairing is complete, you should be able to not only control your Fire TV Stick menu, but your TV functions as well, including power and volume. If it’s a smart TV, you won’t always be able to control the OS and first-party apps with a Fire TV Stick remote, but if you’re using your Amazon device and its apps to watch TV, this shouldn’t be an issue.
