With Parental Controls, you can block purchases and restrict access to Amazon movies, TV shows,

Note: Parental controls do not restrict content in third-party applications. Parental controls for third-
party applications are determined by the app provider.
1. From the Home screen, select Settings, and then select Parental Controls.
2. Using your remote, press the Select button to turn parental controls On or Off.
3. Your PIN is the same PIN you use for other Amazon services such as Amazon Instant Video.
Note: If you forget your PIN, visit http://www.amazon.co.uk/pin to reset your Parental Controls PIN.
4. After you set a PIN, you can set one or more of the following settings: Require a PIN for all
purchases
Require a PIN for Amazon Instant Video only
Block the ability to view or purchase certain content types, such as games, apps,
or photos
Change your Parental Controls PIN
After you enable Parental Controls, most actions related to content viewing, purchasing, or
changing settings will require you to enter your Parental Controls PIN.

Use Your Voice to Search Amazon Fire TV

The Voice Search feature on Amazon Fire TV allows you to use your voice to search for movies, TV
shows, apps, games, and more.
If you have multiple Amazon Fire TV remotes paired with your Amazon Fire TV at the same
time, Voice Search will only work with the first paired remote.
1. On your Amazon Fire TV remote, press and hold the Voice
A microphone icon should appear on the screen, and you will see Listening...
2. Say keywords related to the content items you want to search for (such as the title or
genre), and then release the Voice button when you're done speaking.
Amazon Fire TV will search your content library, the Amazon stores, and any compatible apps for
related content. The results will appear on your TV screen.
Tip: To optimise your Voice Search experience, make sure you:
o
Speak one to eight inches from the microphone
o
Have one person speak at a time
o
Reduce background noise
o
Say a movie title, actor name, character name, or genre instead of full sentences or
commands, as Amazon Fire TV does not support natural language commands.
o
To search for videos that are included with Amazon Prime at no additional charge,
add the phrase "Prime only" to a voice search.
