5 | The 5 safety features of your Sicomatic® t-plus

The Sicomatic t-plus that you have purchased is a technologically advanced device. It has been designed based on decades of experience in the manufacture and development of pressure cookers.

WMF Sicomatic - | The 5 safety features of your Sicomatic® t-plus - 1

1. Transparent operating valve

If the maximum pressure exceeds the selected cooking level, the transparent operating valve opens and the excess steam is released from the lid handle opening in the front. Any excess pressure is also automatically reduced. Please note that for functional and safety reasons, only Sicomatic® H09F transparent operating valves may be used.

2. Overpressure protection with integrated automatic cooking feature

a) Automatic cooking function

The valve can be moved when not under pressure. After parboiling the closed Somatic® t-plus, any excess food-impairing atmospheric oxygen is automatically discharged (automatic venting).

b) Function as an overpressure valve protection

The overpressure relief valve is not used during normal operation. It is only used when the transparent operating valve fails and the pressure continues to build up. Steam is then released from the discharge opening on the lid shaft handle.

3. Safety slot

The "emergency outlet" on the rim of the lid is only used as an additional safety mechanism if both the transparent operating valve and the overpressure valve fail to work. Once too much pressure builds up, the lid gasket is pushed outwards as far as possible into the safety slot so that steam can be released.

4. Residual pressure stop

The residual pressure stop integrated into the pressure indicator rises even when there is a small amount of pressure: The pressure indicator is visible. You can unlock and open the cooker only once the pressure indicator has completely retracted into the lid shaft handle. This prevents accidental opening when under pressure.

5. Locking inhibitor

If the handles are not properly aligned, the lid will not be sealed. Therefore, pressure cannot build up. In addition, the red safety bolt in the lid handle prevents pressure forming if the lid is not correctly closed and releases steam.

6 | Before each use

The Somatic® t-plus meets the requirements of the EC directive 97/23/EC. Some of the statutory prescribed safety precautions are considerably exceeded.

Warning

Check the safety mechanisms before you use your Sicomatic t-plus.

This helps to avoid dangerous situations during use.

Check the aroma sealing cap

WMF Sicomatic - Check the aroma sealing cap - 1

If the aroma sealing cap is not fastened correctly or is damaged, this may result in the release of hot steam or sudden evaporation. This can damage the lid shaft handle.

Check that the aroma sealing cap is fastened correctly (see fig.).
Check the aroma sealing cap for damage (tears, holes, deformation and brown discolouration).
If the aroma sealing cap is damaged, do not use the cooker.
Only use original Somatic ^忍 t-plus spare parts.

Checking the pressure indicator

WMF Sicomatic - Checking the pressure indicator - 1

Check the pressure indicator using your finger to see if the aroma sealing cap moves.
At the same time, slide the slider back to the "OPEN" position

Checking the overpressure valve

WMF Sicomatic - Checking the overpressure valve - 1

If the overpressure valve is dirty or clogged, steam can suddenly be released through the safety slot.

When using on gas hobs, the released steam can extinguish the gas flame, in which case gas continues to be discharged uncontrolledly at the hob.

Check that the overpressure valve (1) moves freely.
Apply light pressure, e.g. using a wooden spatula, to check that the ball can move (2).

This prevents steam from being released unexpectedly.

Checking the operating valve

WMF Sicomatic - Checking the operating valve - 1

WMF Sicomatic - Checking the operating valve - 2

If the operating valve is dirty or clogged, the overpressure valve is activated.

Check the operating valve for dirt and correct position. The edges of the operating valve must lie flat at the top and bottom of the lid (see figure).
Clean the operating valve if necessary. to prevent steam from being released unexpectedly from the opening on the lid shaft handle.

Check safety bolt

If the handles are not aligned correctly, the red safety bolt stops pressure building up in the cooker.

Check that the spring-loaded safety bolt can move.
To do so, press the safety bolt gently.

Checking the lid gasket

Check the lid gasket for damage.

A crack in the lid gasket may result in sudden evaporation and the release of hot steam.

Replace the lid gasket if it is hard (brown discolouration), brittle or damaged.
Replace the lid gasket after approx. 400 uses, and at the latest after 2 years.
Only use original Sicomomatic t-plus spare parts.

The Sicomatic name must feature on the lid gasket.

Check that the lid gasket is positioned on the inner rim of the lid.

This helps you to maintain the proper functioning and safety of your cooker.

Checking the handles

Check the handles for damage.
Replace damaged handles before use.
Only use original Somatic ^心 t-plus spare parts.
Make sure the handles are firmly attached to the cooker.
Carefully tighten the fastening screws.

This prevents a handle from breaking or coming loose, causing the cooker to drop, and resulting in damage and deformation.

7 | Cooking with the Sicomatic® t-plus

WMF Sicomatic - | Cooking with the Sicomatic® t-plus - 1

Maintaining the cookware and hob

Do not knock kitchen gadgets on the pouring rim. This prevents damage to the pouring rim.
Only add salt to water that is already boiling, and then stir it.

This prevents the salt from attacking the bottom of the pot.

Never slide the cookware back and forth across ceramic cooking zones.

This prevents residue between the cookware and the ceramic cooking zone from scratching the hob.

WMF Sicomatic - Maintaining the cookware and hob - 1

When using on a gas hob:

Make sure that the gas flame is never larger than the base of the cooker.

To prevent damaging the handles and seals.

7.1 Filling the cooker

WMF Sicomatic - Filling the cooker - 1

Respect the maximum filling quantities and never overfill the cooker.

Overfilling the cooker can cause hot water, cooked food, or hot food to leak out of the operating valve.

On gas hobs, this can extinguish the gas flame and gas continues to be discharged at the hob.

Fill the cooker to a maximum of 2/3 of its nominal content.
Fill the cooker to a maximum of half of its nominal content if you are cooking foods that overly swell or froth, such as soups, pulses, stews, stocks, giblets and pasta.

This protects against burns and scalds.

WMF Sicomatic - Respect the maximum filling quantities and never overfill the cooker. - 1

Preventing damage caused by small filling amounts.

If the quantity is too small, this can cause the cooker to overheat and cause damage to the cookware and the hob.

→ Always fill with sufficient liquid to allow steam to be generated.
Make sure you use sufficient liquid, especially with viscous foods.

This prevents the pot from "boiling dry" and prevents damage to the pot and hob.

Prescribed filling quantities:

Sicomatic® size (nominal quantity)Minimum filling quantity for steam productionMaximum filling quantity (2/3 of the nominal quantity*)Maximum filling quantity for foods that swell or froth a lot (1/2 of the nominal quantity*)
2.5 | 1/8 | Water 1.7 | 1.3 |
3.0 | 1/4 | Water 2.0 | 1.5 |
4.5 | 1/4 | Water 3.0 | 2.3 |
6.5 | 3/8 | Water 4.3 | 3.3 |
  • See scale on inside of pot

Pour the required amount of liquid into the bottom of the pot.
Use water, meat stock, sauce etc.
Either add the food directly or place the insert containing food into the cooker.
Choose a hob size that corresponds with the size of the pot.

Depending on the recipe, first heat up the food in the cooker and pour over the fluid before you close the cooker.

WMF Sicomatic - Preventing damage caused by small filling amounts. - 1
Danger

Skimming froth/ stirring when parboiling

Cook foods that are viscous or overly swell or froth (e.g. pulses and boiling meat) in the pot without a lid.
If necessary remove the froth after parboiling.
Stir the contents of the cooker.

This ensures that no hot froth can escape via the operating valve. preventing burns and scalds.

Only now may the cooker be closed.

7.2 Closing the cooker

WMF Sicomatic - Closing the cooker - 1

WMF Sicomatic - Closing the cooker - 2

WMF Sicomatic - Closing the cooker - 3

Wipe the rim of the cooker and the lid gasket before closing.

This removes any particles that may prevent sealing.

Place the lid on the cooker so that the markings on the lid (fig.1) and on the cooker shaft handle (fig.2) are positioned flush above each other.
Move the lid shaft handle to the left until it is positioned directly over the pot shaft handle (fig. 3).
→The lock makes an audible click when in place.

7.3 Using the three adjustable cooking levels

Cooking level 0 (cooking without pressure)

WMF Sicomatic - Cooking level 0 (cooking without pressure) - 1

Your Sicomatic t-plus can also be used as an ordinary cooker. Food cooks without pressure using little water and energy. Once a little steam is released, you must turn down the power setting. If too much steam is released or the pressure indicator starts to increase slightly, this means that the power setting is too high.

Cooking level 1 (approx. 109^ / 1st white ring)

WMF Sicomatic - Cooking level 1 (approx. 109^ / 1st white ring) - 1

This is used to steam and stew delicate foods with a short cooking time. The food, e.g. vegetables or fish, is placed in inserts and is thus not leached out by the cooking water.

The first white ring is visible on the pressure indicator. As soon as a little steam is released, the specified cooking time begins. The position of the pressure indicator when steaming should be maintained by regulating the

power setting on the hob so that no steam is released, or only gently.

Cooking level 2 (approx. 119^ / 2nd white ring)

WMF Sicomatic - Cooking level 2 (approx. 119^ / 2nd white ring) - 1

This is used to cook and braise meat, soup and stews for example. It also used for sterilising, preserving and juicing.

The second white ring is visible on the pressure indicator. As soon as a little steam is released, the specified cooking time begins. The position of the pressure indicator when steaming should be maintained by regulating the power setting on the hob so that no steam is released, or only gently.

7.4 Cooking safely with the hot cooker

WMF Sicomatic - Cooking safely with the hot cooker - 1

Hot steam is released at the lid.

Never touch the steam.
→ Always keep your hands, head and body out of the danger zone above the centre of the lid and the safety slot on the rim of the lid.

WMF Sicomatic - Hot steam is released at the lid. - 1

The outer surface of the cooker can reach 130^ .

Use suitable hand protection.
During use, never touch the hot external surface of the cooker.
You must always use the handles and ensure a firm grip when moving or carrying the hot cooker.
Move the Sicomatic t-plus carefully.
Be careful not to touch anybody else with the hot cooker.
Only place the hot Sicomatic t-plus on heat-resistant surfaces (never on synthetic material etc.).
Always open and close the Sicomatic t-plus using the handles.
Never leave the Sicomatic t-plus unattended when in use.
During use, keep children away from the Sicomatic® t-plus.

7.5 setting the cooking level, ventilating and heating

Use the selector to set cooking level 0, cooking level 1 or cooking level 2.
Use a high power setting for heating.

Ventilation takes place automatically using the integrated automatic heating feature, therefore manual ventilation is not required when parboiling. If sufficient steam is released by the overpressure valve, the automatic heating feature turns itself off. The pressure indicator begins to rise.

7.6 Cooking

The pressure indicator rises even under low pressure. The actual operating pressure and temperature, and thus the beginning of the cooking time, are reached when a little steam is released at the set cooking level.

Cook at this position until the end of the cooking time.
To do this, adjust the power setting on the hob accordingly.

At this stage, if the power setting is too high for the Sicomatic t-plus, steam is released via the discharge opening on the lid shaft handle (in the middle of the lid), accompanied by a noise that gradually gets louder.
Turn down the power setting.

The position of the pressure indicator when steaming should be maintained by regulating the power setting on the hob so that no steam is released, or only gently.

In doing so you avoid wasting energy unnecessarily and prevent it from "boiling dry".

7.7 Releasing steam/cooling down

You must reduce the pressure in the pot before you open the Sicomatic ^※ t-plus.

Therefore turn off the power.
Remove the pot from the cooking zone.

There are three ways in which you can reduce the pressure:

a) Fast steam release

WMF Sicomatic - a) Fast steam release - 1

Hot steam is released at the lid.

Never touch the steam.
→ Always keep your hands, head and body out of the danger zone above the centre of the lid and the safety slot on the rim of the lid.
Particular caution is required when using the slider to quickly release steam.

WMF Sicomatic - Hot steam is released at the lid. - 1

When cooking soups, pulses, stews, stock, offal and pasta, the filling volume in the cooker increases due to the formation of froth.

Never release steam from the pot quickly if you are cooking frothing or pulpy foods.
Use the operating valve in this case to quickly release steam.
Allow the cooker to cool down to prevent burns and scalds.

WMF Sicomatic - When cooking soups, pulses, stews, stock, offal and pasta, the filling volume in the cooker increases due to the formation of froth. - 1

Slowly slide the slider back until no more steam is released.
Wait until the pressure indicator has fully retracted into the lid shaft handle by itself.

b) Allowing it to cool down

Wait until the pressure indicator has fully retracted into the lid shaft handle by itself.

WMF Sicomatic - b) Allowing it to cool down - 1

This method is suitable for frothing or pulpy foods. Reduce the cooking times a little as the food will continue to cook while it is cooling down.

c) Cooling down with water

Hold the cooker under cold running water until the pressure indicator retracts fully into the lid shaft handle.
Do not run the water directly onto the lid shaft handle. Make sure cold water does not enter the pot via the valve on the lid shaft handle.

WMF Sicomatic - c) Cooling down with water - 1

Condensation forms in the pot when using this method.

It drips onto the food and can affect its colour and aroma.

Therefore only use this method in exceptional cases.

When sterilising, preserving and juicing, you must refer to the instructions in Chapter 7. You must also read the safety information in Chapter 2 and Chapter 7.

WMF Sicomatic - Note the cooking instructions - 2

Always fill with sufficient liquid to allow steam to be generated.

This prevents the cooker from "boiling dry". It also prevents damage to the pot and the cooking zone.

Observe the prescribed fill quantities:

See table under point 7.1

WMF Sicomatic - Always fill with sufficient liquid to allow steam to be generated. - 1

Allow the pot to cool down slowly

After sterilising, preserving or juicing, never release the steam quickly from the Somatic t-plus.
Never use water to cool the cooker down.

Glass objects can shatter due to the sudden change in temperature.

Turn off the power.
Remove the cooker from the hob and allow it to cool down slowly.
Wait until the pressure indicator has fully retracted into the lid shaft handle by itself, before you open the cooker.

This protects against injuries caused by shattered glass.

9.2 sterilising

WMF Sicomatic - sterilising - 1

Using the product for its intended purpose

Only use the Somatic® t-plus for sterilising in home use. Do not use the Somatic® t-plus as a steriliser in a medical environment. The Somatic® t-plus is not designed for the sterilisation temperature required in medical environments.

WMF Sicomatic - Using the product for its intended purpose - 1

Ensure that the parts you wish to sterilise are resistant to superheated steam up to 120^ .

The Sicomatic® t-plus is an ideal and cost-effective home steriliser as you only pay the energy costs.

Possible uses:

  • Sterilisation of baby bottles, rubber suction cups and plastic seals
  • Sterilisation of baby food in screw-cap jars
  • Sterilisation of preserving jars (see also the following point 9.3 "Preserving")

Clean all milk and porridge residue from bottles, rubber suction cups and plastic seals.
Place the parts in the perforated insert with the openings facing downwards.
Position the parts in the insert to allow the steam to circulate around them properly.

Pour the minimum quantity of water into the base of the cooker to generate steam.
Place the perforated insert in the cooker.
Close the cooker and use the slider to set it to cooking level 2.
Use a high power setting for heating.

The sterilisation process begins once the second white ring is visible on the pressure indicator.

The sterilisation time is approx. 20 minutes.

WMF Sicomatic - Possible uses: - 1

Sterilising correctly and effectively

Make sure that the second white ring is visible throughout the entire sterilisation cycle.
You must adhere to the sterilisation time.

Allow the pot to cool down after sterilisation.
Wait until the pressure indicator has fully retracted into the lid shaft handle by itself.
Only then can you open the cooker.

9.3

Preserving

WMF Sicomatic - Preserving - 1

Never overfill preserving glasses

The contents expand during the preservation cycle. If a closed preserving jar contains too much filling it can burst.

Therefore fill the preserving jar up to a maximum of one finger width below the rim.

This protects against injuries caused by shattered glass.

Sterilise the preserving jars before you start the preservation cycle as described under point 9.2.
Fill the preserving jars.
Seal the jars according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Pour the minimum quantity of water for steam generation into the base of the cooker.
Place the jars on the strainer or in the perforated insert.
Close the cooker and use the slider to set it to the required cooking level.
Use a high power setting for heating.
Observe the following table for selecting the cooking level and the preservation time.

Allow the pot to cool down slowly after preservation.
Wait until the pressure indicator has fully retracted into the lid shaft handle by itself.
Only then can you open the cooker.

9.4 Juicing

WMF Sicomatic - Juicing - 1

Select the correct cooker base size and never overfill the cooker

Place two inserts in the cooker for juicing.

The Sicomatic ^ t -plus can therefore be used to juice a minimum quantity of 4.5 litres.

Overfilling the cooker can cause food to leak out through the operating valve.

Fill the top perforated insert no higher than its top edge.

This protects against burns and scalds.

Pour the minimum quantity of water for steam generation into the base of the cooker.
Add the sliced or squashed prepared fruit (add sugar if necessary) into the perforated insert.
First place the non-perforated insert in the cooker and then on top place the perforated insert containing the fruit.
Close the cooker and use the slider to set it to cooking level 2.
Use a high power setting for heating.
Observe the following table for selecting the cooking level and the preservation time.

13 | Tips: Cooking with the Sicomatic® t-plus / Cooking time tables

WMF Sicomatic - | Tips: Cooking with the Sicomatic® t-plus / Cooking time tables - 1

Proceed as per the instructions in Chapter 7. You must also read the safety information in Chapter 2 and Chapter 7.

WMF Sicomatic - | Tips: Cooking with the Sicomatic® t-plus / Cooking time tables - 2

Always fill with sufficient liquid to allow steam to be generated.

This prevents the cooker from "boiling dry". It also prevents damage to the pressure cooker and the cooking zone.

Observe the prescribed fill quantities: See table under point 7.1

13.1 Soups and stews

Ideal for soups and stews with roasted meat: If the cooking times for meat and vegetables do not differ much, the meat is browned and the vegetables are added together with the stock.

If the cooking times differ a lot, interrupt the cooking process for the meat and add the vegetables for the remaining minutes, so that everything is cooked together and finishes cooking at the same time.

Observe the following rules for soups and stews:

Parboil frothing foods such as pulses and boiling meat in the cooker without the lid and remove the froth before closing it.
After cooking, allow the cooker to cool down, see point 7.7.

Cooking time guidelines

The precise cooking times depend on the size, freshness and consistency of the food you are cooking. The energy source, e.g. induction, gas or glass ceramic, also influences the cooking times. The cooking times essentially apply for 500g . A larger amount of liquid is required than normal. Soaking is not necessary with these cooking times.

Cooking level Cooking time in min. for stew Comments
White beans 2 25 Cook in 1.5 l of liquid
Kidney beans, dried 2 65 Cook in 1.5 l of liquid
Whole peas, dried 2 45 Cook in 2.0 l of liquid
Lentils 2 10 Cook stew with 2.5 l, purée with 1.5 l of liquid

13.2 Vegetables

The specified cooking times are guidelines to help you quickly determine your own cooking times. Cooking times not only depend upon the quality of the food you are cooking, but also on the following:

→ The smaller you chop vegetables, the quicker they will cook.
→ The crispier or "al dente" the vegetable should be, the shorter the cooking time. We have specified the time for "al dente" and "well cooked".

→ The larger the overall quantity of food being cooked, the longer the cooking time. For "al dente" results, the quantity should not be too large, otherwise the food is "al dente" but the inside is raw. Small time differences usually have little influence.

However, with vegetables, a single minute can transform them from "al dente" to "well cooked".

The cooking time always starts when steam is first released.

The vegetables are placed in the insert for the following cooking times. The vegetables, therefore, are not in contact with the water and cannot be leached out.

WMF Sicomatic - Vegetables - 1

In case of doubt remember: It is better to undercook, as you can always cook it some more. However if it is overcooked, you cannot make it "crunchy" again.

13.3 Meat

Joints are roasted in the Somatict t-plus. The necessary amount of liquid is first used for the stock.
If the pieces are too large, cut them smaller and brown them individually, then cook them on top of each other to finish cooking.
Cook boiling meat using 1-1.5 l of liquid in the bottom of the pot.
The cooking time depends on the quality, age, consistency and size of the meat.

The cooking time begins once the second white ring is visible on the pressure indicator and is based on a quantity of 500g

Important: Remove the froth from boiling meat before you close the cooker. Before you open the cooker, allow it to cool down or slowly release the steam in stages.

13.6 Cooking a menu / tower cooking

In the Somatic ^ -plus with inserts you can cook an entire menu comprising of different foods at the same time in one pot.

Here are a few tips

→ The total cooking time for menus is always based upon the food with the longest cooking time. The dish with the longest cooking time is inserted first. If you want to cook a roast for 25 minutes, boiled potatoes for 9 minutes and vegetables for 5 minutes, cook the roast for 16 minutes then interrupt the process and place the insert carrier over the roast, then place the perforated insert containing the potatoes on top.

After a further 4 minutes, open the Somatic t-plus and place the non-perforated insert with the vegetables on top. Cook for a further 5 minutes and the entire meal is ready.

You can reduce the cooking time for meat considerably if the meat is cut into portion-size slices. The meat then cooks in approx. 10-15 minutes, more or less the same time as rice, potatoes or vegetables, and you do not need to interrupt the cooking process.
Neither the smell nor the taste of the foods are transferred to each other. Therefore no mixed aroma is created.

Cooking time guidelines: The cooking times apply for 500g. Adjust the cooking level according to the food.

*For menu tips 1 and 2, minimum 6.5 l Sicomatic® t-plus base must be used

13.7 Frozen food and whole foods

Frozen food

You can thaw frozen food quickly and gently in the Sicomatic t-plus to retain vitamins, flavours and minerals. Lengthy defrosting and thawing times are reduced to minutes, however this depends on the size of the frozen food.

Here are a few more tips

→The heating times for frozen meat are a little longer and the cooking times are a little shorter than for fresh meat.
Small thin pieces of meat, such as escalopes and chops as well as goulash that were frozen as individual chunks; do not defrost them, instead brown them in hot fat and then cook as normal.
→Slightly thaw large thick pieces of meat and then brown them in hot fat or e.g. for meat stocks cook in boiling water.
If the poultry has already been gutted and split, prepare similarly to fresh poultry.
Frozen fish is either cooked in the insert at cooking level 1 or simmered briefly in hot fat in the bottom of the pot and then finish cooking with the rest of the liquid at cooking level 1.
Place the frozen vegetables in the insert. Pour the usual amount of water into the bottom of the pot to generate steam, and cook.

Whole foods

A healthy diet incorporates a variety of different grains, which usually involve many hours of soaking followed by a very long cooking time. In the Somatic® t-plus, this long cooking time can be reduced up to 2/3. Prior soaking is also no longer necessary. Another advantage of cooking whole foods in the Somatic® t-plus is that it efficiently retains the vitamins and minerals of whole grains when cooking at cooking level 1 and it also saves energy. The following rule of thumb applies to cooking grains: double the amount of liquid compared with the grain (i.e. 200ml liquid for 100g grains).

Cooking time guidelines:

The lid (including components), handles, lid gasket, aroma sealing cap and chrome pouring rim are excluded from the warranty, as these parts do not have a ceramic Silargan® surface.

Under the terms of the warranty, we will exchange parts with a defective Silargan® surface for perfect parts within the warranty period. A Silargan® surface is not deemed defective if it merely exhibits normal signs of wear and tear such as cutting and scratch marks etc. which are of a purely visual nature; such signs of wear and tear are not covered by the warranty.

Provided that this model is still included in the product range, the defective part will be replaced by a part from the same model. If the model is no longer part of the Silit product range, the defective part will be replaced with a similar product within the current Silit product range.

Exclusions from the guarantee

The guarantee does not cover damage due to the following causes: Failure to observe the instructions for use and care, overheating, inappropriate or improper use, incorrect or negligent handling (e.g. cleaning with abrasive

products), any kind of forceful impact (e.g. falling onto a floor, a blow), mechanical, chemical or physical damage to the surface resulting from incorrect use, improperly performed repairs and the installation of spare parts that do not correspond with the original design.

Warranty claims

For any warranty claim, a dated proof of purchase is required. The guarantee is effective from the date of purchase.

Information on the consumer's statutory rights

We offer a 10-year supply warranty on spare parts upon expiry of the production time.
