The following are some typical blunders that many people make when using this stove, which endangers the entire household.
1. Unplugging the power source immediately after turning off the stove
Many people believe that unplugging the power source immediately after using an induction burner saves electricity. However, this prevents the cooling fan from functioning. The cooling process of the stove slows. This increases the chance of short-circuiting some internal components and parts, which could lead to a fire or explosion.
As a result, if you want to unplug the induction stove, wait until the cooling fan stops running before doing so.
2. Cleaning the stove incorrectly
Cleaning the stove immediately after use is another common cause that causes the glass surface to crack and break easily. Many families are subjective about these fissures, but they nevertheless use them. The fissures will, however, enlarge when exposed to heat and the vibration of the stove’s electrical fan system.
Furthermore, water is bound to spill or splash onto the stove surface during cooking. Water will leak through gaps into the electronic circuit board under the glass and create short circuits, fires, and explosions.
To operate the stove safely and for an extended period, clean up after letting it rest, and clean the stove with warm water.
3. Place the stove in an inappropriate location
Inappropriate stove positions include being too close to the wall, being near electrical equipment that creates excessive heat, or being too close to a water source.
According to experts, positioning the stove too near to the wall reduces circulation and heat dispersion. The stove should be placed approximately 5-10cm away from the wall.
At the same time, keep the induction cooktop away from other heat-emitting appliances in your kitchen. Because placing heat-emitting gadgets near each other at high temperatures increases the risk of fire and explosion. Placing an electrical appliance, such as an induction burner, near a water supply can quickly lead to short circuits and fires.
4. Continuously change the temperature of the stove
Currently, induction cookers feature a temperature control panel and function settings directly on the surface. Many people who use them incorrectly repeatedly click the buttons or alter the stove’s mode and temperature.
This renders the device’s control circuit readily disrupted, resulting in overload and deadly short circuits and explosions.
5. Gradually adjust the temperature
When cooking, users should increase the temperature from low to hot in increments of around 2 minutes. This allows the burner to transmit heat slowly, saving electricity.
You should not leave the stove on high power for too long. Because the stove lacks an automated shut-off mode when overheated, this can overload the equipment and endanger the operator.
6. Regularly clean the stove
Many families fail to clean their electric stoves. This reduces the efficiency of the stove and detracts from the kitchen’s appearance. Grease or leftover food on the stove surface might cause the glass surface to crack while operating at high temperatures.
As a result, users should clean the stove with cleaning solutions after each use. Allow the stove to cool for about 15 minutes before cleaning it down with a soft towel.
7. Turn off the stove a few minutes early
When cooking stews or stir-fries, users can switch off the heat a few minutes early when the meal is nearly done. Because the leftover heat from the stove is sufficient to cook the dish thoroughly. This will also help you save a tiny amount of electricity.
