How to keep central console touch screen clean? - Page 2

I use a microfibre cloth with a screen cleaner fluid. No damage to the finish and reduces dust and fingerprints for a while.

I don’t bother. I will give it a clean once in a while with glass cleaner when I clean the inside of the car.

I also struggle to keep the black around the gear knob, start button etc smear free, but I give up now. As long as it’s clean enough I don’t obsess over it.

I used the Brotect matte screen protector. This is brilliant as it eliminates greasy smudges and stray reflections with only a slight loss of colour contrast. Available on Amazon specifically for the Volvo screen.
Only wish they made one to fit my current non-Volvo car.

Yep...... a major mistake that Volvo/Sensus couldn`t allow us to scroll through the menus/music via the steering wheel directional buttons.
That would be a big safety plus too.

We do have this to a degree using the button on the wheel, but it does have its limitations..... I can change music, change radio, switch to cd etc, ring someone and I also have voice activation controls.

We can’t have everything
