- Press the power button on the Nokia/Thomson remote. The TV will turn on and the light on the receiver will turn white.
- Use the arrow keys to navigate to the ConceptTV app and press the middle black button. (If the TV menu bar appears, press the button with the house icon.)
- In addition to ConceptTV, you can also use other apps (with your own login credentials if needed).
⚠️ Error message? The TV is probably not set to the correct HDMI channel, or the Nokia box is not connected to Wi-Fi.
Use the other TV remote to switch the HDMI channel: press the SOURCE button and select the correct HDMI channel until the TV displays a picture. You won’t need this remote afterward.
❗Don’t forget to log out if you’ve used other apps. And a small request: please leave the settings and/or language as they are.
📺 Enjoy watching!
You can operate the thermostat yourself – simply set it to the desired temperature. Please make sure the radiators in the living room and bathroom are always open (you can adjust those in the bedrooms as you wish).
In the house, you’ll find a blue supply box (located either in the utility cupboard or under the sink). Inside you’ll find items such as light bulbs, batteries, and a vacuum cleaner bag.
If needed, you are welcome to use these. We kindly ask you to note it on the form in the box and to leave the form on the dining table upon departure.
In case of serious damage or loss, we kindly ask you to cover the cost of replacement or repair.
🐾 How lovely — your four-legged friend is joining you on holiday to Ameland!
Click here for extra information to ensure a wonderful stay.
📱 Tip: Check out our AmelandApp (under the button "Discover Ameland").
Here you’ll find detailed information about off-leash areas, fun walking tips, and everything you need to know about visiting with your dog.
This is a non-smoking property. Of course, smokers are welcome to smoke outside.
⚠️ Please be aware of the fire hazard! Cigarettes must be disposed of in an ashtray or bin. If we find cigarette waste around the house and need to clean it up, we will deduct the costs from the deposit.
Unfortunately, ticks are also found on Ameland. This parasite can be dangerous because it can transmit various diseases through a bite. From April to October, ticks are very common. Therefore, always check yourself carefully after being in the dunes, forest, or garden. If a tick has bitten you, use a tick remover (tick tool) to take it out.
How to prevent a tick bite?
A tick cannot fly or jump. It drops down from bushes or tall grass. In principle, it can suck blood anywhere on the body, but it prefers to settle in skin folds, such as the hairline, armpits, buttock crease, groin, or behind the knees.
You can help prevent tick bites as follows:
- In areas where ticks are common, always wear long trousers (tuck the trouser legs into your socks) and a shirt with long sleeves.
- Wear light-coloured clothing so that you can easily spot a tick.
- Apply an insect repellent containing DEET or lemon eucalyptus extract to uncovered skin for optimal protection against tick bites.
Check, check, double check!
Been on an adventure? Enjoyed nature? Check yourself and/or each other thoroughly for tick bites! Even if you have protected your skin in advance, it is still necessary to check your body. A tick bite is hardly noticeable, and that’s the danger: you can be bitten without realising it. So always check!
If you find a tick, remove it as quickly as possible. The longer it stays attached to your skin, the greater the chance that it will transmit pathogens.
If you do get a tick bite
Do NOT do this!
Attention! Always remove a tick the right way: with a proper tick remover. Do not use alcohol or other substances to stun the tick. Do not try to remove it with your nails, tweezers, or even a cigarette. Doing so can put the tick into shock. Bad for the tick, but worse for you! When in shock, the tick regurgitates the contents of its stomach, including harmful bacteria and viruses, which can then enter your body. Exactly what you want to avoid!
Never throw a live tick back into nature – crush it carefully so it cannot infect anyone else.
Do this!
Found a tick? Use a good tick remover and grasp the tick by the head, as close to the skin as possible. Remove it with a steady, twisting and pulling motion. Then disinfect the bite with alcohol.
Did part of the tick (mouthparts or head) stay behind in your skin? Don’t panic – just remove it as you would a splinter. In that case, you twisted or pulled too hard or not enough. Removing ticks is a delicate task.
Always write down the date and location of the tick bite in your diary/calendar and note where on your body the bite occurred. If an infection develops, this information will help you get the right treatment quickly.
⚠️ If a red spot or ring appears around the bite within a few weeks, or if you feel unwell, this may indicate an infection with the Borrelia bacterium. Contact your doctor immediately and provide as much information as possible. The sooner treatment begins, the greater the chance of success!
In case of emergency, call 112 directly.
