Usage Precautions And Three Taboos For Rice Cookers

Matters needing attention:
(1) Electric rice cookers should not be bumped to prevent deformation, especially the bottom of the inner pot and the surface of the electric heating plate should not be bumped, otherwise it will affect the thermal efficiency of the electric rice cooker due to uneven contact.
(2) Food should be placed in the pot and covered before turning on the power; Before taking out food, be sure to disconnect the power supply to ensure safety.
(3) Do not remove the inner pot and connect it to the power supply. There is a risk of overheating and burning out the electric heating plate when the inner pot is powered on.
(4) It is not suitable to cook acidic or alkaline foods, and it should not be placed in a damp or corrosive gas environment to avoid damaging the components and causing malfunctions.
(5) The outer shell of the inner pot and the electric heating plate should not be soaked in water. The electrical components are installed in the lower part of the pot body and can only be wiped clean with a dry cloth after cutting off the power. After washing the inner pot, the moisture at the bottom of the pot must be wiped dry with a cloth.
(6) Do not use other utensils to replace the inner pot and place it on the electric heating plate for heating.
(7) Do not disassemble the electrical components of the rice cooker at will, in order to avoid affecting the performance and effectiveness of the rice cooker.
(8) It is necessary to regularly check whether the power sockets and power cords are damaged to prevent accidents caused by electric leakage.
Three taboos:
1. Do not connect the power plug of the rice cooker to the socket of the lamp head or desk lamp.
Because the wires of a typical desk lamp are thin, have a low current carrying capacity, and are prone to aging or melting when exposed to heat The power and current of the rice cooker are relatively high, which can cause the light wires to heat up, resulting in accidents such as electric shock and fire.
2. Avoid using an electric rice cooker to cook food that is too sour or salty Because the inner pot of the rice cooker is made of aluminum, cooking food that is too sour or salty with it can corrode and damage the inner pot easily. In addition, there should be guards when cooking and stewing to prevent Congee water from overflowing into the electrical appliances and damaging electrical components.
3. Avoid collision The inner pot of the rice cooker is prone to deformation after being touched, and the bottom of the inner pot cannot fit well with the electric heating plate after deformation, resulting in uneven heating during cooking and easy cooking of undercooked rice. Therefore, it should be handled gently during use.
