The top level (Index.php) uses the default template.
You can change the other pages' templates, by selecting one from the drop-down menu in site structure window.

Please see this document. It explains the templates and its use. Also indicates that it is a work in progress.

Changing templates works only on sublevels. On toplevel, there is no edit button, so you cannot change the template here. If it works with the default template, so all other sublevels should not change, only new created sublevels and articles would be reflected, or I am wrong?

You are right. There is no way to select a different template for the top-level (I wish there was a way). It uses the default template. If you want to change the look of the top-level, edit the default template. If you want to change the look of a sub-level, create another template and select that template for the sub-level.
