Precautions When Using a Commercial Induction Cooker

Commercial induction cookers are popular with kitchen operators for their many advantages. What should you watch when using them? CHINENG explains below.

Usage precautions

1. Avoid constant damp locations. Place the unit in a dry, well-ventilated spot. Keep the bottom cooling inlet clear of clutter so air can enter freely.

2. Confirm cookware is on the surface before switching on. Never dry-heat—poor cooling can trigger protection shutdown and shorten life.

3. Do not cut mains power abruptly during use. Wait until cooking and the cooling fan have stopped before switching off the supply.

4. After removing cookware, do not touch the glass-ceramic top—residual heat can burn. Avoid impacts; if the top cracks, cut power immediately and call service.

5. Clean only after power-off and cool-down. Wipe with mild detergent—no strong acids/alkalis, no direct water hose, and no steam cleaners.

Always follow the manual. Improper use can cause unnecessary damage and downtime.
