I use a damp microfiber, and wipe gently. If you need something stronger, be sure to spray the towel, not the screen.

you can also find pre-moistened LCD screen cleaners at most computer stores.

They also work well.

While I don't have access to the manual that comes with the system, I'm sure if you check it you'll find the correct answer.

Use a special cleaner for that screen. I have one that cleans and seals but they dont make it anymore. Also dont do it when its hot get it inside and cool down or you will have issues.

I use my lens cleaner for my Oakley's. It works great and I already have it, so no need to buy anything new. Although I would like to add, that I didn't even know about the LCD screen cleaner. I may need to look into that.

I just put a small spray of my window cleaner on a soft cotton rag and wipe it clean. No problems at all.

Stoner's Glass cleaner on a microfiber towel for all glass, mirrors, HUD, and LCD. It is awesome! It's a spray can and Wal Mart carries it.

You can get screen protectors from NuShield. They have pretty much eliminated the problem of finger prints and can be wiped clean by any type of towel. They also make a very minor improvement to the glare problem.
