Adjusting the Display Contrast
You can adjust the display contrast to suit your viewing angle and lighting conditions. As
you change the contrast setting, a number from 0 (lightest) to 9 (darkest) in the top-right
corner indicates the current level. You may not be able to see the number if contrast is too
light or too dark.
Note: The TI-84 Plus has 40 contrast settings, so each number 0 through 9 represents
four settings.
The TI-84 Plus retains the contrast setting in memory when it is turned off.
To adjust the contrast, follow these steps.
1. Press and release the y key.
2. Press and hold † or }, which are below and above the contrast symbol (blue, half-
shaded circle).
• † lightens the screen.
• } darkens the screen.
Note: If you adjust the contrast setting to 0, the display may become completely blank. To
restore the screen, press and release y, and then press and hold } until the display
reappears.
