Abstract

The handle (3) has electric conductors designed as a capacitive sensor (11) and integrated into an electric circuit (6) in a handgrip surface (4). An electrical slide sensor (7) and the capacitive sensor are circumferentially arranged on the handgrip surface relative to hand (5) embracing the handgrip surface. A cleaning device (4) is switched-on if the sensors are detected in a specific order by the embracing hand. The electrical sensor and the capacitive sensor are displacedly arranged in a width direction of the embracing hand.
