How to keep the rice cooker safe

Rice cookers are used to cook good food at the same time
Attention should also be paid to the following
Rice cooker precautions!
1. Please unplug the power plug in time after use
If you don't need to keep warm after the rice cooker is used, you must unplug the plug, many fire accidents caused by rice cookers are due to the short circuit of the electrical appliances caused by the plug not being pulled, which causes fire, so remember to unplug the plug as soon as possible after eating.
2. Clean the heating plate in time
One of the reasons why rice cookers take longer to cook rice and consume more electricity may be that the heating plate is not cleaned in time. The failure of the heating plate is also very easy to cause a short circuit and cause a fire, so pay attention to the maintenance of the heating plate of the rice cooker.
3. Avoid colliding with the inner liner
When we clean the liner, we may use too much force, which may cause the liner to deform or the liner coating to be damaged. Once the inner liner coating is damaged, it will affect the heat conduction, and the phenomenon of uneven heating will occur, increasing the fire hazard. Therefore, when cleaning the rice cooker daily, it is necessary to pay attention to avoid colliding with the inner tank.
