Pair a Remote or Game Controller

Amazon Fire TV supports the pairing of Amazon Fire TV remotes, Amazon Fire game
controllers, and compatible Bluetooth-enabled third-party wireless game controllers. Up to
seven of these devices may be connected at a time.
Note: If you're setting up your included Amazon Fire TV Remote for the first time,
insert the two included AAA batteries into the remote, and it will be automatically paired with
your Amazon Fire TV. If your remote isn't discovered, press the Home button for at least five
seconds, and then release it.

Pair an Additional or Replacement Remote

Before you pair an Amazon Fire TV remote, verify that the remote is compatible with
Amazon Fire TV, is within range, and has the required batteries installed.
