ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a cooking stove that prevents an instruction from being given using the touch switch owing to a factor different from the user's operation, while hindering the user from having an incongruous or anxious feeling when operating the touch switch. Touch switches10to13are provided on a glass top plate covering a top surface of a cooking stove main body accommodating a left burner and a right burner; the touch switches10to13sense an object that contacts with or approaches the top surface of the glass top plate. When any of the touch switches is turned on and then turned off again, heating control31executes a pre-assigned process to the touch switch. When the touch switch is turned on, lighting control32changes the displays of display sections14to17to ones corresponding to the state of a burner after the process has been executed before executing a pre-assigned process to the touch switch.
