Bought a new Apple TV remote

I have the Apple TV 3rd gen but don’t have the original remote so I bought a new one. How do I pair it without the original remote

You can link the remote as described in the second half of this support page:

If your Apple TV remote isn’t working - Apple Support

Do all three steps; not just the second one.
