Screens in the taycan

[Jared355]

Curious question. I asked the service department and they didn’t know. Are the screens in the car glass or acrylic? I feel like they are glass but not positive. Kinda affects what route I take to clean them if they are acrylic!

I am pretty sure it is acrylic or treated glass as they state to not use cleaning products directly on it, but I don’t know the definitive answer. I will say whatever the surface is, it sure loves fingerprints!

Not sure but only use a soft microfibre cloth, nothing else

I ordered the 3 pack of microfibre available from Porsche. Bit pricey for what they are but look great

not sure if you have ever ordered adams car care products BUT they have a double and triple thick microfiber cloths and what’s nice is they are super thick. What’s great about that is you can’t apply a lot of pressure in one spot which is what really makes scratches.

If your towel is think enough the capacitive touch screens won't register your fingers either.

Did anyone figure out how to switch off the screens so you can clean them? So far I tried PCM power off, vehicle power off, PCM and vehicle power off, power off and lock the car..... you see where this is going. Each time I touch the screen it wakes up.....

Use a thicker microfiber cloth. The one I use to clean my glasses turns the screen on. A thicker one similar to what I use polish my car after waxing does not turn it on.

I have the Screensaver Protector set on all my screens. Company that applied my PPF did them. Does not affect the haptics or usability. I saw that Suncoast Parts carries them.
Fingerprints wipe off easily with a soft microfiber cloth.

US manual page 68 provides care instructions.
