摘要

The operating device (8) has a hollow cylindrical element (9) that is formed by magnetic material and is arranged on main surface (3) of the domestic appliance (1). The hollow cylindrical element is moved on the main surface based on magnetic interaction with sensors. The positioning zones (11-14) are formed on the main surface such that the function units (4-7) are selected by positioning hollow cylinder element on the corresponding positioning zones.
