Switch off Fire TV - how it works

Amazon has no built-in shutdown feature on its Fire TV. We'll show you what you can do to turn off your Fire TV.

Turn off Amazon Fire TV

The Amazon Fire TV cannot be switched off completely. It automatically switches to standby after a while, but continues to send data over the Internet to Amazon and uses electricity.

• The only way to turn off your Amazon Fire TV completely is to pull the plug and disconnect it from the power.
• We recommend connecting the Fire TV and all associated devices to a power strip with a switch. So you can easily disconnect all devices from the power.
• If you are also satisfied with the sleep mode, you can activate it manually. To put the device into standby, press and hold the home button on the remote control. Simply select the "sleep mode" here.

You can also protect your devices from lightning strikes during a thunderstorm via a power strip.
