Zusammenfassung:The design and evaluation of sensor elements, such as used in an electric hob, of an operating device is simplified. For this purpose, the sensor elements are configured in such a manner so as to have differently sized sub-area regions. When a finger is placed on a cover above the sensor element according to the mark provided thereon, a contact surface is created above the sensor element. By this contact surface a corresponding operating signal having variable characteristics is triggered, which can then be associated with a corresponding operating function.
