The first arm includes a first portion having a curved profile to facilitate abutment of the first portion with a movable disc of the assembly. The lever has a flexible third arm extending from the base portion and configured substantially parallel to the second arm. This shape and/or material of the third arm facilitates smooth and constant abutment of the first portion with the movable disc, and ensures a soft contact of the first lever against an inner surface of a housing of the assembly.
