Did you buy it used?

If so, hold down the "Erase" button before pressing the main power switch then release it after the MPC powers up.
This will restore it back to factory settings and it should auto-load some demo programs and sequences you can play around with.
(p115 of the manual - Chapter 18: Other Settings)

To adjust the contrast of the display you hold down "Shift" and turn the Data Wheel (p114).
