Adjust the display contrast and brightness. On some devices, the screen

Reset the device. After a reset, the screen remains blank for
approximately 3 seconds after pressing On/Off buttons.
Charge the device by connecting to AC power.
Screen is dark
Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may cause your device screen to
temporarily darken. This is normal for LCD screens and is not permanent.

Use HP settings to adjust contrast and brightness for optimal viewing. (Refer
to the Adjusting settings section in chapter 5). In very bright light, select the
Outdoor profile in HP settings. In very dark conditions, select the Low Power
profile. In a dark room, you may also need to ensure that the backlight is on
and/or position a lamp so that the light shines directly on the screen.
