Setting the Display Contrast

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.
