How To Reset Display On Ezx290 Handset?

Somehow the display on my EZX290 handset has gone 'blank' (lights up, but does not display any lettering). I _believe_ I may have somehow changed the contrast to an extreme, but I don't know how to reset it without being able to read the screen. Any suggestions on how to reset the handset to factory defaults? I've tried removing/reinstalling the battery, but no joy. Thanks, Mike S.
