Abstract

The device has a manual actuator that acts on at least one switch contact maker (13) when actuated and a drive for the movable part (10) that is switched by the switch (12). The movable part is mounted on the vehicle body (40) that has a rigid, incompressible wall thickness with a free part (10) of such dimensions that it bulges under pressure to activate the switch.
