摘要

Operating device of a programmable household appliance, e.g., a cooker, with adjustable control values, wherein working programmes are prespecified as a first control value, and prespecified as an additional control value is at least one programming parameter assigned to the working programme with adjustable parameter values and with a display screen (46; 246; 446; 546) in which the working programmes and the parameter values of the control values can be displayed as entries, and with operating elements (28; 228; 428; 628) by means of which the entries for the control values can be controlled and adjustedin the dialogue on the display. In order to increase the user-friendliness in particular, it is proposed that the display (46; 246; 446; 546) has a highlighted processing area (86; 426) for accepting an entry which can be adjusted in said processing area (86; 426), wherein the operating elements (28; 228; 428; 628) for processing all control values comprise a navigation device (48; 248; 448; 648) with control in at least two directions, with a selection device (52, 54; 252, 254; 452, 454; 652,654) for selecting each of the different control values by scrolling an entry for said values into the processing area (86; 426) and/or moving a highlighter over simultaneously displayed control value entries, and with an adjusting device (50; 250; 450; 650) for scrolling other entries of the selected, highlighted control value into the processing area (86; 426).
