Abstract
A vehicle display control device, when a steering wheel is at a steering angle position of a neutral position or the vicinity thereof, if a right hand sensor detects gripping of the steering wheel, turns off light sources of memory buttons and operation buttons that can be operated with a right hand, and if a left hand sensor detects the gripping, turns off a light source of air conditioning related buttons and hides touch buttons of a touch panel display that can be operated with a left hand. The vehicle display control device, if the right hand sensor does not detect the gripping, turns on the light sources of the memory buttons and the operation buttons, and if the left hand sensor does not detect the gripping, turns on the light source of the air conditioning related buttons and displays the touch buttons on the touch panel display.
