With outstanding features such as easy to use, suitable for many cooking utensils or easy to cook non-toxic dishes such as coal, infrared cookers are trusted by many housewives. . But how to use the infrared stove safely and effectively is certainly not known by everyone. Let WebTech360 immediately refer to the following article!
>> Common mistakes when using infrared cookers
The first principle of safe use of infrared cookers to remember is not to touch the counter while cooking. Because infrared cookers use electricity to convert into a large amount of heat to heat food quickly, so the temperature on the kitchen surface is very high. Many housewives have a habit of being clean, using the kitchen wherever they are, but that habit is not welcome when using the infrared stove. You absolutely do not clean the stove during cooking and after cooking. At that time, the very high temperature of the stove top makes you very susceptible to severe burns.

Do not touch the countertop while cooking to avoid burns
Infrared cookers have a very large capacity of 2000W, so if they share a socket with other electronic devices such as TVs, refrigerators, air conditioners, the power source is overloaded and leads to short circuits. Therefore, when installing, the family should pay attention to choosing the right stove for the family's power source, which can add a voltage stabilizer to stabilize the current, while ensuring the safety of the family and at the same time. prolong the life of the kitchen.

The kitchen surface has a very high temperature, so if accidentally let water stick to the kitchen, it will cause the kitchen glass to crack, even break. In addition, since infrared cookers use modern induction cookers, too much exposure to water causes the stove to fail and generate less heat. And if repeated for a long time, it will cause the stove to fail, forming gaps that cause electric shock, not safe for the user. Also note, if the bottom of the cooking pot gets wet, you can use it to dry and then put it on the stove.
Do not let the kitchen surface come into contact with water
The next thing to note in how to safely use the infrared stove is the placement of the stove. Position the kitchen so that it is not near other electronic devices in the kitchen and that position must be very well ventilated. When cooking, the stove radiates high heat and neighboring appliances are affected, thereby reducing the service life of both induction cookers and other appliances. Should put the kitchen in a well ventilated place, not near the wall. When the stove is difficult to dissipate heat, it does not accumulate, causing a musty atmosphere in the area around the kitchen, causing the stove to fail quickly or even explode.
Many women believe that unplugging the power cord right away is a way to use the infrared stove economically, but it is the fastest way to damage your kitchen. In fact, when cooking is finished, the kitchen temperature is still very high, when you unplug the power cord immediately, it will stop the heat dissipation of the kitchen fan, making the kitchen surface cool for a long time. If it is continuous for a long time, the stove will quickly fail. Please note, press the OFF button on the kitchen surface, never unplug the power cord.
Do not unplug the power cord immediately after use
If you keep the old habit, turn on the stove to heat the pot and put food in, you should fix it immediately when using the infrared stove. It is very energy consuming and makes the life of the stove very short. Not only that, with too large heat, it is very easy to burn, damage the pot and affect the surrounding objects.
Do not turn on the stove if food is not ready
