Hi Malaa,

this is from the Apple Support guide for reconnecting your Siri remote to AppleTV.

it may be a good idea to give it a charge beforehand.


The Siri Remote comes automatically paired with your Apple TV. If it disconnects or you get a replacement remote, you’ll need to manually pair it to Apple TV.


Pair the Siri Remote with Apple TV

  1. Turn on Apple TV and position the Siri Remote so it’s within 3 to 4 inches (8 to 10 cm) and pointing at the front of Apple TV.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • Siri Remote (2nd generation): Press and hold the Back button  and the Volume Up button  for 2 seconds.
    • Siri Remote (1st generation): Press and hold the  button and the Volume Up button  for 2 seconds.
  1. When the Siri Remote is successfully paired, an onscreen message appears.
