Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1401000A2] The knob has a housing (4,12) comprising optically transparent sections (4), and a reflector (34) arranged in the housing for reflecting light from a spatially-fixed light source (LED), outwards to the transparent sections of the housing. The transparent sections constitute an annular coaxial peripheral surface with coaxially distributed indication marks. A light-guide connection is provided between the transparent sections and further transparent sections (12) of the housing. An Independent claim is included for an operating unit for domestic appliances.
