Is there any way to shut off the display or is it lit always?

It have a power button to turn it off, but it will use electricity for a light led that tells you that is connected to the electricity. I sugest disconecting it when there is no use for it to low your billings. PS. It arrived with no remote control, I email them and they did nothing about it... :(

Yes the display is auto and turns off. It has a little green power led but doesn't emit that much light.

It is not a defect. it is auto set to be "On " when it arrives. you can switch it off - go to Menu from your remote - then to setup , scroll down and click on other settings and then go to LED illumination and there Turn it off

My display stays lit, too. If the needed connector isn't included, why would you keep it?

Yes. Note it is possible also to have the display lit for about 3 sec by pressing the run and time buttons together, then when the display shows "...d-L", toggle on the display by pressing the up button on the unit. Afterwards when either the up (raise) or down(lower) temp button is pressed the display is lit for the 3 sec.

If you have the cord plugged into the power supply the display stays lit. It should go off if nothing is plugged in.

On mine the display illuminates for a few seconds after a button is pressed, and then it goes out. The display does not stay lit.

There's a "clean display" button that will clear most of the icons (leaves current and desired temps). Also, the blue backlight can be set to always on or timed out. After some testing on my touchscreen...most of this info is always on but you can't see it very well when the backlight times out.

do you mean why does the display lights come on after you click the system off? In that case the system is in sleep mode. I don't know of that happening the other way around.

Hit the Mode button until the moon and tree are gone. The display should be back to "normal" and then from there turn it off. It sounds as if you have it on night mode.

There is a function key on both sides of the keyboard on the bottom, and controls on the F Keys at the top to adjust screen brightness, volume, and keyboard back light. You can make it as bright as you want, and turn it off completely.

I leave it on all the time... you have a remote which let's you toggle the darker effect on and off easily or raise and lower the amount. It's a simple circuit board design and it probably doesn't use a few dollars a year in electricity. If you unplug it, it won't pass thru to your display. Just leave it on... love mine and wouldn't give it up...

It doesn't turn off. But I'm pretty sure it's just using solar power to run the display when you aren't using it because the batteries never run out. I mean ever. I've had one of these for like 3 years and I haven't replaced the batteries.

There must be a way since it's always been across the top of my screen. Now I'm curious to see if I can turn it off.

I don't think it really shut off, I think it simply think it went to sleep. Push any button for a few seconds and the display will light up and all activity should be reflected. Happy walking.

The display is always on. There is, however, no "light". You cannot read it in a dark room.
