  • the known dialogue systems are unusual and time-consuming in operation and require an increased concentration compared to conventional control systems with rotary and push buttons. In the preparation of food, a quick action may be required and it is difficult here to respond quickly via a menu in the dialogue system.

  • a dialogue operation under the table with possibly poor light and visibility, there are particularly high demands for ease of use, especially in terms of legible, clear display content, easy-to-understand dialogue and easily understandable arranged and easily operable controls.
  • the present application is based on the stove E 9871-4 of the company AEG.
  • This stove has a control panel, which is divided in color in their side areas, each in a lower control range associated with a hob cooking rotary turntables and an overlying display area in which are displayed in small displays the cooking levels set with these turntables.

For example, memory programs are programmable with buttons 14 and 18 on the far right, far from the left program selector. It is also confusing that the status field with the already set parameter values in read direction after the main selection field for parameters lies between two selection fields of the same display. Also, it is not clear how to return to setting an already edited parameter without canceling the setting.
  • the European patent EP 0 976 862 B1 shows a washing machine with a multi-line high-screen display, on one side edge of which keys assigned to the lines are arranged, with which the program parameters displayed in the lines can be modified in a modifying manner.

  • This design also has the disadvantage of a high height of the display. This would be less problematic in a washing machine per se. However, if you want to equip different devices of a device series with user-friendly similar or similar control devices, the conditions described above based on the hearth of the Fa.

The user will have little patience in stooping position. So the operation remains confusing at least for the less experienced user.
  • keys arranged below the display are assigned changing functions as the settings progress, initially serving as program memory keys and later as function keys. This, too, is confusing, even if the display arranged very close above displays pointers to the key mapping.
  • a built according to this application quite multi-part display must be relatively high, if the font or the symbols should still be easy and quick to read without too much hinbückt or the device must be installed with the control panel in face height.
  • the entrance described stove E 9871-4 of the company AEG calls with the activation of a large list of available work programs, which are then scrollable through a window of the display and shows in a submenu further work programs. This requires long scrolling when searching for a more specialized program.
  • the invention has for its object to avoid or mitigate disadvantages of the prior art and in particular to increase the ease of use.
  • the solution according to claim 1 is characterized by its uniformity in that an operating element or a function of a multifunction operating element with an effect that always remains constant or at least visually consistent can act on all entries in the display. This is simple and memorable for the user and not known from the previously known devices and patent applications for dialog operations in household appliances. Avoiding different triggered by a control function movements or actions in the display makes the operation clearer, faster understandable and thus safer.

  • Each control group is expediently consistently processed in dialog mode by means of on-demand control and modification by means of the navigation device, whereby the operation is easy to learn and execute.
  • the division into the group of main and additional parameters is psychologically very important for ease of use. It provides the inexperienced user with a selection guide so as not to overwhelm him and leaves all possibilities open to the experienced user. Here is to think fast, stressful kitchen operation. The limit of this division is not sharp, but to draw for convenience for the device type. It is known from washing machines of various manufacturers, in addition to the setting of control variables by means of a dialog control additional control variables via buttons set. However, apart from the disadvantage of the increased number of keys, this has the significant and somewhat confusing disadvantage for the user that, depending on the selected program type, each of the keys must be inoperative in each case. In the present case, on the other hand, only the sensibly adjustable control variables are displayed. With the time control variables, which can not be freely combined, the setting of one size can then delete other meaningful ones from the group.
  • the additional control variables and the time control variables are preferably not appended to the series of main control variables in their call for presentation but occupy the processing series and displace the main control variables including the name of the selected program in a status area of the display, so that as many of the additional control variables clearly in find space for the ad.
