Abstract

The control knob for a domestic apparatus, e.g. an oven, is intended to be designed and illuminated, as far as possible, such that the adjusting mark is clearly visible. According to the invention the rotating knob (11), which can be depressed, has a translucent annular apron (15) which surrounds the inner guide part at a distance. Behind the annular apron (15), there is located a lamp holder ring (9), fitted with small incandescent lamps (10), which pass into the annular space surrounded by the annular apron (15) when the rotating knob is depressed. <IMAGE>
