The steam heating module is kept in the heating state all the time, and the process proceeds to step S22. In step S22, the detection value of the temperature sensor 7 is determined, and if the detection value of the temperature sensor 7 is changed, the process returns to step S21; if the detected value of the temperature sensor 7 is not changed, it indicates that the temperature sensor 7 has a problem, and the process proceeds to step S23. In step S23, the steam heating module maintains the no water inflow state or the continuous water inflow state, and then proceeds to step S24. In step S24, the detected value of the temperature switch module 3 is determined, and if the detected value of the temperature switch module 3 is less than the maximum temperature threshold, it is determined that the steam heating module is still within the safety range, and the process returns to step S23; if the detected value of the temperature switch component 3 is not less than the maximum temperature threshold value, the steam heating module has an overheating problem, and the step S25 is performed to avoid the damage and safety problems. In step S25, the steam heating module stops heating.
