If you're talking about the screen and the viewfinder displays, go to the yellow wrench tab, 3, and screen/viewfinder display is the 2nd down. You want Auto 2.

If you use the proximity sensor the camera changes between viewfinder and screen without even needing to touch a button. If you want a button you can program one of your choosing, see note:

Another option is to only set two(one of them off) options for shooting information display and switch between them with the info button.
