1 Place a suitable dish with water and 4 teaspoons of white vinegar (20 ml) in the microwave, turn it on at full power for 6 minutes. Leave the solution to evaporate in the microwave for an hour and then wash the inside. Wash the microwave with soap and water.
  • There is an alternative way. Put a bowl of white vinegar in the microwave without turning it on, and leave the vinegar there until the smell disappears. Then just wash the microwave with soap and water.
  • Another alternative is to wash the inside of the microwave with soap and water, then dry with a cloth dampened with water and white vinegar.

Method 3 of 6: Vanilla

  1. 1 Place 4 teaspoons (20 ml) vanilla in a bowl of water and microwave until it boils. Let it evaporate for half an hour, then wipe and wash the inside of the oven.

Method 4 of 6: baking soda

  1. 1 . Place 4 teaspoons (20 ml) of baking soda in a bowl of water. Heat at full power for 6 minutes and leave the bowl there for an hour. Wipe down the inside and then wash the microwave with soap and water.

Method 5 of 6: Cloves

Tips

  • Allow the microwave to dry after cleaning before closing the door.

Warnings

  • Never place metal objects in a switched on microwave oven, as this may cause a fire.
  • When the water has boiled, leave it in the microwave for at least 10 minutes to avoid scalding yourself when you take it out.
