The knob in the recess is rotatable around a longitudinal axis (A), and is tiltable from its normal position in the recess, where the operating conditions are detectable and adjustable by magnetic interaction of magnets (7-11, 14) of the knob and the recess during positioning and/or movement of the knob.
