Abstract
A switching device, in particular in a motor vehicle, includes a control element () having an operating interface () which may include a plurality of control panels (). A haptics actuator which is seated in the interior of the switching device provides a haptic response by displacing the control element () in a lateral direction as soon as a switching signal is generated. The haptics actuator has a force-travel characteristic with a second force maximum which is remote from the end stop and in the range of which the working travel is placed.
