Abstract
The invention relates to a control and display module for a motor vehicle, comprising a screen (2), a capacitive touch panel (3) on top of the screen (2) and a frame (7) surrounding the capacitive touch panel (3) and having one edge (8) overlapping a peripheral edge of said panel (3), thereby forming a cavity between the capacitive touch panel (3) and the frame (7). The module is characterized in that it comprises a glass plate (9) glued to the capacitive touch panel (3), closing the cavity in order to reduce at least partially the difference between the levels of the capacitive touch panel (3) and the upper surface of the frame (7).
