TV
The TV in the house is equipped with an AppleTV. This means that only one remote control is necessary for control.
Switching on and off
There is a button at the top right of the remote control for this purpose.
Volume control
The volume is controlled with the buttons on bottom right of the remote control.
Programme selection
The TV is used via various apps (similar to a smartphone). There are apps for TV channels (ARD, ZDF, RTL etc.), for streaming services (Amazon Prime, Netflix etc.) or other video services such as YouTube. Most services can be used without registration and subscription. For some services, such as Netflix, a paid subscription is necessary. If you already use Netflix at home, for example, you can simply and conveniently log in on the TV set with your access data and watch your films.
Please do not forget to log out of all TV services to which you have logged in with your own access data before you leave.
