The punching 5 is provided. A lamp filter 6 having an orange portion A, a red portion B 1, and a blue portion C 1 is arranged between the lamp 4 and the lighting punching 5. The lamp filter 6 is connected to the selection switch 2 by a lever 7. A transparent lamp filter 8 is provided on the lighting punching 5.

The operation of the heating cooker having the above-described configuration will be described. When the user slides the selection switch 2 to heat and cook the food by microwave heating, the lamp filter 6 is operated in conjunction with the selection switch 2. The blue part C is located between the lamp 4 and the punching 5 for illumination, and the inside of the heating chamber 3 is illuminated with blue.

When the user slides the selection switch 2 to a position where convection heating is performed, the lamp filter 6 moves in conjunction with the selection switch 2 to move between the lamp 4 and the lighting punching 5. The red portion B of the lamp filter 6 is located at the position, and the inside of the heating chamber 3 is illuminated with red.

When the user slides the selection switch 2 to a position for mixing (alternate heating of microwave heating and convection heating), the lamp filter 6 moves in association with the selection switch 2.
