A gas cooking surface, including at least one gas burner and a control device for adjusting the heating capacity stages of the burner. The gas burner operates depending on the heating capacity stage adjusted in a continuous mode in which the gas burner is continuously supplied with gas, or in a clocked mode in which the gas burner is supplied with gas in an intermittent manner. In order to allow for a user-friendly handling of the cooking surface, the control device, for adjusting the desired heating capacity stage, is provided with at least one touch contact that switches, without respect of the mode of operation, between the different heating capacity stages when actuated by the user.

The invention claimed is: 1. A gas cooking surface, comprising: at least one gas burner; a gas supply coupled to said gas burner for supplying gas thereto; a control device for adjusting the heating capacity stages of said gas burner; said gas burner, depending on said adjusted heating capacity stage, operates in one of a continuous mode in which said gas is supplied continuously to said gas burner or a clocked mode in which said gas burner is supplied with said gas in controlled pulsating manner; said control device including a touch contact for switching between said heating capacity stages; said touch contact controlling said heating capacity stages associated with said continuous mode and also with said clocked mode; and said control device automatically controls said burner to a starting heating capacity stage in which said gas burner operates in said continuous mode when said gas burner is switched on by said touch contact, said control device is set to initially operate said burner in an initial continuous mode of operation upon actuation of the starting touch control switch and to subsequently operate said burner in said continuous mode or said clocked mode upon further actuation of the touch contact to select either the continuous mode or the clocked mode. 2. The gas cooking surface according to claim 1, wherein said gas burner is switched on by a first actuation of said touch contact. 3. The gas cooking surface according to claim 2, wherein said starting heating capacity stage automatically adjusted by said control device is a minimal heating capacity stage in said continuous mode. 4. The gas cooking surface according to claim 2, wherein said touch contact has at least one of a plus button for increasing the heating capacity and a minus button for reducing said heating capacity. 5. The gas cooking surface according to claim 4, wherein said gas burner is switched on by a first actuation of at least one of said plus button and said minus button. 6. The gas cooking surface according to claim 4, wherein said touch contact has both said plus button for increasing said heating capacity and said minus button for reducing said heating capacity, and said gas burner is switched off by simultaneously actuating said plus button and said minus button. 7. The gas cooking surface according to claim 4, wherein said touch contact has both said plus button for increasing said heating capacity and said minus button for reducing said heating capacity, and said gas burner is switched off by actuating said minus button in a minimum heating power stage in said clocked mode. 8. The gas cooking surface according to claim 4, wherein said touch contact has both said plus button for increasing said heating capacity and said minus button for reducing said heating capacity, and said gas burner is switched off by actuating said plus button in a maximum heating power stage in said clocked mode. 9. The gas cooking surface according to claim 4, wherein said gas burner operates in an upper heating capacity range in said continuous mode and in a lower heating capacity range in said clocked mode. 10. The gas cooking surface according to claim 5, wherein said touch contact has both said plus button for increasing said heating capacity and said minus button for reducing said heating capacity, and a maximum heating capacity stage in said continuous mode is set when said minus button is first actuated to switch on said gas burner. 11. The gas cooking surface according to claim 1, wherein the touch contact includes only a plus button and a minus button to select between and to control operation of the gas burner in the continuous mode and the clocked mode. 12. A method of operating a gas cooking surface, comprising: providing at least one gas burner; coupling a gas supply to said gas burner for supplying gas thereto; adjusting the heating capacity stages of said gas burner; operating said gas burner, depending on said adjusted heating capacity stage, in one of a continuous mode in which said gas is supplied continuously to said gas burner or a clocked mode in which said gas is supplied intermittently to said gas burner; said control device including a touch contact for switching between said heating capacity stages; touching said touch contact for switching said heating capacity stages in said continuous mode and also in said clocked mode; and automatically adjusting said burner to a starting heating capacity stage in which said gas burner automatically operates in an initial continuous mode when said gas burner is switched on by touching said touch contact, and subsequently the gas burner operates in the continuous mode or the clocked mode depending upon further actuation of the touch contact to select either the continuous mode or the clocked mode. 13. The operating method according to claim 12, including switching on said gas burner by a first actuating of said touch contact. 14. The operating method according to claim 13, including automatically adjusting said starting heating capacity stage to a minimal heating capacity stage in said continuous mode. 15. The operating method according to claim 13, including providing said touch contact with at least one of a plus button for increasing the heating capacity and a minus button for reducing said heating capacity. 16. The operating method according to claim 12, including switching on said gas burner by a first actuating of at least one of said plus button and said minus button. 17. The operating method according to claim 16, including providing said touch contact with both of said plus button for increasing said heating capacity and said minus button for reducing said heating capacity and setting a maximum heating capacity stage in said continuous mode when said minus button is first actuated for switching on said gas burner. 18. The operating method according to claim 12, including providing said touch contact with both of said plus button for increasing said heating capacity and said minus button for reducing said heating capacity and switching off said gas burner by simultaneously actuating said plus button and said minus button. 19. The operating method according to claim 12, including providing said touch contact with both of said plus button for increasing said heating capacity and said minus button for reducing said heating capacity and switching off said gas burner by actuating said minus button in a minimum heating power stage in said clocked mode. 20. The operating method according to claim 12, including providing said touch contact with both of said plus button for increasing said heating capacity and said minus button for reducing said heating capacity and switching off said gas burner by actuating said plus button in a maximum heating power stage in said clocked mode. 21. The operating method according to claim 12, including operating said gas burner in an upper heating capacity range in said continuous mode and operating said gas burner in a lower heating capacity range in said clocked mode. 22. The operating method according to claim 12, wherein the touch contact includes only a plus button and a minus button to select between and to control operation of the gas burner in the continuous mode and the clocked mode.
