Losing a controller is common in every household, but that doesn’t mean you can’t turn on the Emerson TV without it. All Emerson TVs have a dedicated power button, so you can turn the TV on instantly by pressing it. Additionally, you can rely on the remote app to switch on your Emerson TV. This guide elaborates on the two ways to power on the Emerson TV without a remote.
Use the TV Power Button to Turn On Emerson TV
One of the direct ways to turn on any Emerson TV is by using the TV power button. You need to go near your Emerson TV and find out where the Power button is located. Usually, the Power button will be at the bottom of the TV under the Emerson Logo. In a few models, the Power button will be at the right, left, or back of the TV. Some Emerson TVs have a touch-sensitive Power button that is usually located at the bottom center of the TV. Once you find the Power button, press it once to turn on your TV.
If you can’t find the Power button on your Emerson TV, you can refer to your TV’s user manual. Some of you might have mounted your TV on the wall, and for those, accessing the Power button on the TV’s back side will be difficult. In that case, you can follow the next method to turn on your Emerson TV.
Use the IR Remote App to Turn On Emerson TV
Another alternative method to turn on your Emerson television is using the remote apps. If you have an Android mobile with an IR blaster, you can use the infrared remote app to turn your TV on and control it easily. Since there is no built-in IR blaster on an iPhone, you cannot use the IR remote app.
