If you selected ‘Enable Parental Controls’ you will be prompted to enter a parental control PIN number (keep this somewhere safe).

Step 16:

Depending on which variant of the Amazon Fire Stick you have purchased, the remote for your Amazon Fire Stick may be compatible with your TV to adjust the volume, please check whether the volume adjustment feature works with you TV (will not work with all) at this stage and select ‘Next’ to move on with the set-up process.

Step 17:

Please continue to follow the on-screen instructions and select ‘OK’ to move on with the set-up process.

Step 18:

The set-up process is almost complete, you will now be asked whether you wish to subscribe to Amazon Kids+ or alternatively, you may see a message asking you whether you wish to subscribe to Amazon Prime Video, if you do not already have a subscription.

Step 19:

Whether you decided/decided not to proceed with the subscription service for Amazon Prime Video or Amazon Kids+ you will be directed to the ‘Choose your Streaming Services’ page. Everything following this page is free to download to your Amazon Fire Stick, however, usage of the application will more than likely require a subscription.

It is worth noting that a number of these subscription services will have an introductory offer, usually in the form of a 30 day free trial or something similar. In order to redeem these free trial’s you will be required to create an account and provide a payment method (although payment will not be taken before the free trial concludes). Remember to diarize the date that the free trial ends on to avoid any surprises of subscription fees being debited from your chosen payment method.
