Try it again. I too was having this issue. I bought an open box excellent condition system . Exact same one. Missing manual. And it was so annoying seeing display. The poster above who clearly displayed the instructions was absolutely correct. You simply didn't follow them correctly. And as answered above , the TV button is the button that looks like a square . It's the second button on the soundbar . You press the second button square and the Bluetooth down for 5 whole seconds not 1 or 2 or 3 but 5 and the bar absolutely will change display to dimmer or something and then you use the volume keys on the remote and you can out to off . Once off the display only comes on briefly when the remote is used or settings are changed on soundbar like volume or whatever. Then it turns off. This was a life saver for me. I logged on to this board just to tell you you were just not following the simple instructions correctly. And that amazes me.
