First, the use of induction cooker matters needing attention
1. Install special power cord and power socket. Because the induction cooker has high power, the power cord and socket must be configured according to the power. Usually, copper core wires that can withstand 15A current should be selected, and the matching sockets, plugs and switches should also meet this requirement. Otherwise, when the induction cooker works, the heavy current will make wires, sockets, etc. heat, scorch and short circuit. In addition, if possible, it is best to install a fuse box at the power cord socket to ensure safety.
2. The induction cooker should be placed smoothly. If one foot of the induction cooker is suspended, the gravity of the pot will force the furnace body to tilt and the food in the pot will overflow. If the surface of the stove is uneven, the micro-vibration generated by the pot is also easy to make the pot slip out, causing danger.
3. Ensure that the air inlet and air outlet are unobstructed. The working induction cooker heats up with the heating of the cooker, so the induction cooker should be placed in a place with air circulation, and the air outlet should be more than 250px away from the wall and other objects to ensure that there is no object blocking the air inlet and exhaust holes of the furnace body.
4. Choose the right pot. The shell and black crystal of induction cooker have limited bearing capacity. Generally, the food in the pot of civil induction cooker should not exceed 5 kg, and the bottom of the pot should not be too small to prevent the pressure on the pot surface from being too concentrated. In case you need to heat an overweight and oversized pot, provide a separate support frame for the pot, and then insert the induction cooker into the bottom of the pot.
5, use and maintenance should pay attention to waterproof, moistureproof and prevent cockroaches. Ordinary induction cookers have no waterproof function, and moisture, water or even cockroach excrement may cause short circuit failure. Therefore, when in use, keep away from moisture and steam, and do not rinse with water. Waterproof induction cookers have appeared in the market, but in order to ensure safety and prolong the service life of the products, it is necessary to try to avoid being damp.
6. Don't put too much water in the pot. Do not fill the pot for more than seven minutes, so as not to overflow after heating and cause short circuit of the substrate.
7. The pot must be placed in the center of the induction cooker. Due to the principle of magnetic heating, when the container deviates, it is easy to cause uneven heat dissipation and failure.
8. When heating to high temperature, avoid directly picking up the container and then putting it down. Due to instantaneous power fluctuation, it is easy to damage the machine board.
Second, how can the induction cooker reasonably save electricity?
1, rational use of high-power gear.
The induction cooker heats fast, but it also consumes a lot of power. When the cooker is just heated by an induction cooker, it is heated by a high-power block first, which is fast. Once the pot is boiled, if there is no special requirement, the power gear should be adjusted to the small gear in time to keep the pot boiling, especially when cooking porridge, soup and hot pot. Because the high-power gear not only wastes electric energy, but also makes the soup boil violently under high firepower, which will be dangerous to overflow and make the bottom of the pot crust.
2. Choose a pot with high electrothermal conversion efficiency.
The induction cooker uses the principle of electromagnetic induction to make a metal body with magnetic permeability generate an induced current in an alternating magnetic field and generate a thermal effect to heat and cook food. Therefore, induction cookers should use containers made of materials with good magnetic permeability, such as tin pots, cast iron pots, iron-containing stainless steel pots, pots with iron-containing materials at the bottom, etc. In short, when buying pots and pans, it is best to choose a pot cover with high iron content and good sealing (such as a stainless steel pressure cooker for induction cookers). At the same time, the pots and pans you buy should be flat-bottomed, preferably as wide as the surface area of the induction cooker. In this way, the induction cooker can realize high electric heating conversion efficiency and fast cooking speed.
Third, the daily maintenance of induction cooker
After each use of the induction cooker, the stove surface should be cleaned immediately after the induction cooker is cooled or when a certain temperature is left, so as to avoid the deposition of oil stains and water stains left during cooking. Many people think that the ceramic panel of induction cooker is an integrated structure, which is smooth and easy to clean. You don't have to wash it every time you finish cooking, but you can wash it every few days. In fact, this is a misunderstanding-a clean induction cooker panel not only looks more hygienic and comfortable, but also heats faster and more evenly.
The correct cleaning method of the induction cooker panel is to use a neutral and mild cleaner and wipe it carefully with a soft cloth. Do not wipe or brush the panel of induction cooker with hard objects such as steel balls and hard scouring pad to avoid damaging the panel. If you encounter oil stains and scales that are difficult to handle, you may wish to use some special cleaners to partially decompose or soften the key parts of the pollution, so that cleaning will be much easier.
