ABSTRACT:
A manual switch (2) has a switching plate (9), which can be tilted to several sides and is mounted on a mounting (10). This switching plate (9) can move with star-shaped actuating arms that correspond to the contact arms of a contact spring (7) in the direction of a printed circuit board (6), so that it can close a circuit by means releasably, lockingly engaging the selected actuating arm against a respective contact arm and an electric contact on the printed circuit board. At any switch position one can switch back directly into the zero position by pressing an adjusting arm (13) which moves the switching plate (9) back into its non-tilted position.
