ABSTRACT:
A button holding base member includes a button housing portion. A button is so housed in the button housing portion as to move in a button pushing direction. A button holder is assembled from the back side of an operation panel with the button. The button holder and the button interpose the operation panel inbetween thereby to prevent an illuminating light leakage. Moreover, the button holding base member and the button holder include a sliding portion at a position away from the button housing portion. As a result, the sliding structure is arranged independently of the illuminating light leakage preventing structure thereby to elongate the sliding distance. The stability of the button can be improved while retaining the illuminating light leakage preventing function.
