When you turn on the power, the computer automatically recognizes the monitor and determines whether it is color or monochrome.

To change the display settings, press FN + F5. If you disconnect the monitor before you turn the computer off, be sure to press FN + F5 to switch to the internal display. Refer to Chapter 5, The Keyboard, for details on using hot keys to change the display setting.
