摘要

The present invention relates to a control panel for a household appliance comprising an outer part (24) and at least one inner part (10; 44; 46). The outer part (24) includes a substantially closed front side and an open rear side. The inner part (10; 44; 46) is inserted in or insertable into the outer part (24) through the open rear side. The inner part (10; 44; 46) is moveable for a distance within the outer part (24) along a predetermined direction extending parallel to the front side of the outer part (24). The inner part (10; 44; 46) includes a number of holding elements (12) arranged on at least one side of the inner part (10; 44; 46). The holding elements (12) are engaged or engageable with corresponding elements (38) of the outer part (24) by a motion of the inner part (10; 44; 46) along the predetermined direction, so that the inner part (10; 44; 46) is pressed against the front side of the outer part (24).
