2. Operation of the timer*
You can use your pressure cooker to cook with
or without the use of the timer.
Important note:
Do not place the timer anywhere near any
magnets.
The timer is matched exactly to your lid
handle and cannot be exchanged. If you own
several WMF Perfect Ultra pressure cookers
with timer, any interchanging of the timers
may lead to an incorrect display.
2.1. Switching the pressure cooker on and
programming
In principle, the timer (12) can only be switched
on and operated, if it is positioned on the lid
handle (5).
The timer (12) is switched on if the plus button
(25) is pressed. After approximately 2 seconds
the display (20) shows »00«. Now you can use
the plus and minus key (25)/(26) to set the
required cooking time (max. 99 minutes). If the
key is kept pressed down, a rapid run-through is
activated. When you heat your pressure cooker,
pressure builds up. The indication on the timer
is illuminated in red (24). Now you can no lon-
ger open the pot. If the preset heat setting has
been reached, the cooking time commences.
The timer (12) responds by sounding 3 short
bleeps and the indicator counts backwards in
minutes. The running seconds indicator (22) in
the display (20) shows that the cooking time is
expiring (V).
During the cooking time you can correct the
programmed time with the plus or minus keys
(25)/(26). This is only possible if the timer is
located on the handle. The timer can be swit-
ched off at any time (12) by keeping the plus
and minus keys (25)/(26) pressed simulta-
neously until the indication extinguishes.
2.2. On expiry of the cooking time
When the preset time has expired, a signal of
5 short bleeps is sounded. You can switch off
the sound by briefly pressing the plus or minus
