Overheated Air Fryer Fire Damages Kitchen in Aitkin Home?
11/7/2023 (Permalink)
Today, cooking appliances can range from the stovetop, oven, and microwave to electrical appliances like air fryers and slow cookers to prepare meals. Our local Aitkin, Carlton, and West St. Louis Counties teams want everyone to be safe from fire hazards from electronic cooking appliances and offer these tips from the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) to cook using an air fryer safely:
Air Fryer Safety Tips
- Give your air fryer enough space. The air vents release heat and need airflow.
- Do not leave the home when using the air fryer.
- Make sure you clean grease and food debris after every use. Unplug and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
Key Safety Tips
- Always use cooking equipment, like air fryers, slow cookers, electric skillets, hot plates, griddles, etc. that are listed by a qualified testing laboratory.
- Follow the manufacturer’s instructions on where and how to use appliances
- Remember to unplug all appliances when not in use.
- Check cords regularly for damage. Do not use any appliance with a damaged cord.
