ABSTRACT:
A control unit, particularly for a cooking appliance, containing at least one depressible knob via which at least one switch can be actuated by an outward motion of the knob. The aim is to provide a control unit and cooking appliance of the aforementioned type, in which additional functions can be versatilely integrated in a structurally simple manner in a depressible knob without limiting the rotating motion of the knob. To this end, a blocking unit prevents the knob, in at least one rotating position, from being depressed and in this rotating position, the switch can be actuated by an outward motion of the knob that is transmitted to the switch via a transmitting unit.
