Induction Stove Tips: Nowadays, due to the rising prices of gas and the convenience of fast cooking, the use of induction stoves has increased in many homes. This electric appliance is considered safe and convenient, but if it is not taken proper care of, it can get damaged quickly. Many people unknowingly make such mistakes due to which the performance of the induction stove decreases or it stops working completely. Let us know about 5 big mistakes which you should never make.
using wrong utensils
Induction stove does not work with all types of utensils. Many people start using aluminum, glass or normal steel utensils due to which the stove does not recognize the utensils. Always use only ferromagnetic utensils on induction. If a magnet sticks to the bottom of the vessel then it is suitable for induction.
putting excess weight on the stove
Some people keep big and heavy utensils on induction. Due to continuous excess weight, the pressure on its glass surface increases and there is a risk of cracking. If there is a crack in the surface, not only the equipment may get damaged but the risk related to electricity may also increase. Therefore always keep in mind the weight limit specified by the manufacturer.
use on wet surface
While cleaning the induction stove or cooking, if water accumulates on it, then it should not be ignored. Continuous use on wet surfaces can affect electronic circuits. Apart from this the sensors also do not work properly. Always clean the surface with a dry cloth before use.
closing ventilation slots
To keep the electronic parts inside the induction stove cool, cooling fans and air vents are provided in it. Many people keep the stove in such a place where proper air flow is not possible.
Due to this, the equipment may become excessively hot and the parts inside it may get damaged quickly. Therefore, leave enough space around the induction.
unplug immediately after use
After cooking, many people immediately unplug the electricity. Whereas in many induction stoves, the cooling fan keeps running for a few minutes so that the temperature inside becomes normal. If this is done repeatedly, the life of the equipment may be reduced. It would be better to let the stove switch off completely and only then remove the plug.
