Abstract
A cooking appliance includes a cooktop having at least one sensor operating field. The at least one sensor operating field has at least one scroll field for step by step modification of a multi-value operating parameter of the cooking appliance. The at least one scroll field has a number of discretely disposed sensor keys which are disposed below a cooktop plate.
Claims21
A cooking appliance, comprising:
- a cooktop including at least one sensor operating field and a plurality of hot plates, said at least one sensor operating field having:
- at least one scroll field for step by step modification of a multi-value operating parameter of the cooking appliance, the at least one scroll field allowing for modification based on an actuation speed;
- and
- an activation key corresponding to each of the plurality of hot plates, a specific hot plate of the plurality of hot plates being selectable by touching the activation key assigned to the specific hotplate for the step by step modification of multi-value operating parameters of the specific hotplate using the at least one scroll field.

A cooking appliance comprising:
- a cooktop, the cooktop including:
- a plurality of hot plates;
- at least one sensor operating field,
- wherein the at least one sensor operating field includes at least one scroll field for step by step modification of multi-value operating parameters of the plurality of hotplates, wherein the at least one scroll field is a circular scroll field and includes a plurality of discrete sectors for setting an operating parameter of the plurality of hot plates, a specific one of the plurality of hot plates being selectable by at least one of touching and swiping a discrete sector of the plurality of discrete sectors of the circular scroll field, wherein the discrete sector is assigned to the specific one of the plurality of hotplates.
