How do i DISCONNECT Apple TV Remote from TV

Living in Germany with an American TV, using Vodaphone as internet supplier. I plugged in the Apple remote to the TV and now I cannot get any German television (which also has English channels like CNN, BBC, etc). I have unplugged the apple remote, but to no avail. I need to totally disconnect it. Cannot find any info on how to disconnect this thing b/c I

do not want to use it while in Germany. Plenty of info on how to connect it (using your iphone/ipad). I would think I need to somehow disconnect it from the internet using the iphone/ipad i got it on with (?) but not sure. I am not very IT-smart...help :)!!
