Abstract

In einem Haushaltsgerät, wie z.B. einem Herd, einer Waschmaschine, einer Geschirrspülmaschine oder dergleichen, ist eine versenkbare Drehknebeleinheit zum Einstellen einer hinter einer Schalterblende (3) angeordneten Schalt- oder Regeleinrichtung (5) vorgesehen. Diese Drehknebeleinheit ist zum Einstellen der Schalt- oder Regeleinrichtung (5) von einer in der Schalterblende (3) versenkten Position in eine aus der Schalterblende (3) hervorstehende Position überführbar. Erfindungsgemäß ist in der Versenkfunktion der Drehknebeleinheit eine das Haushaltsgerät beeinflussende Hauptschalterfunktion umfasst. Auf diese Weise ist eine besonders benutzerfreundliche Bedienung des Haushaltsgerätes ermöglicht.
