Many of us are accustomed since childhood to the fact that the buttons on the TV can always be found on the front, in the most visible place. At the very least, older TVs might have the control buttons on the side and almost always the power button was on the front under the screen. Today, in the times of Smart TV, when manufacturers don’t only think about functionality but also about design, it has become difficult to find the buttons. Of course, even in cases where you have searched the entire surface of your device, but haven’t found anything, don’t despair, there are buttons on your TV. After all, even for such a high-tech TV like Vizio, in case you lose the remote you should still be able to somehow manage your device.
Where are the buttons on your Vizio TV usually located
As said above, you need buttons on the Smart TV in case you lose your remote. All of us had at least once put the remote control from the TV and then walked around the room in circles in search of it. Sometimes it dragged on and on, and it was nice when there was nothing interesting or expected on TV. But in cases where we still had plans to watch something, we began to understand where the buttons are and which one of them is responsible for what function. Here is the standard location of the buttons on the Vizio TV:
- You can find the TV power button on the back of the TV, under the HDMI connector and cable. Given the non-standard location, it’s best if you find it before you install the TV. Also take care that it is accessible after installation. To use it, press and hold it for at least three seconds. This way you can turn the TV on or off.
- Also, Vizio TVs may have power buttons on the back of the TV, in the lower right or left corners.
- Next to the power button, in most cases you will find the volume, channel and input buttons.
As mentioned above, this is because TV makers want their products to be not only high quality but also aesthetically pleasing. If you aren’t happy with this, don’t rush to accuse Vizio of being impractical. This is actually quite common in other TV brands. Today, awkward button placement on TVs is the norm, not the lazy decisions or mistakes in the projects. That’s why it’s better to know where they’re before you put the TV on the wall or install it close to the wall.
How to find buttons on TV in other way
Of course, the location of the buttons depends directly on which model you’re using. It’s impossible to provide a clear description of each Vizio TV model in one article and give the exact location of the buttons on each model. That’s why you’d better carefully study the manual that came with your TV when you bought it. Don’t throw it away after unpacking it, and study it carefully before using your new product. Who knows, what other surprises besides the hidden buttons your TV will eventually give you.
