How to remove burnt bread smell in siemens microwave

Hello -

It is probably safe to use the microwave oven after removing the burned smell.

I found some methods for removing a burned smell from a microwave.

1. Fill a bowl with 1/2 cup water and 1 tablespoon white vinegar.

• Microwave it for 4-5 minutes and leave it with the door shut for 10-15 minutes.
• Steam will loosen smell-causing detritus stuck to the walls. Vinegar absorbs odors, even stubborn ones like burnt popcorn smell.
• After the waiting period, remove the bowl and wipe the inside of the microwave down with a paper towel

2. Not good enough? Okay - soak a sponge with vinegar.Place some baking soda on top and microwave the sponge for 25 seconds.

• Wipe the inside of the microwave with the sponge.
• Don't forget the glass tray and the microwave door.

3. If steps 1-2 don't remove all the grime, soak cotton balls with acetone-free nail polish remover and wipe down the inside of the microwave.

• Even stubborn stains should come out.
• Wipe down the inside with soap, then vinegar water, to remove the polish remover.
• We recommend following through with step 4 to get rid of chemical smells.

4. Banish the remaining smells with the power of citrus.

• Peel two oranges or slice a lemon in half.
• Place the orange peels or lemon slices in a bowl of water (1-2 cups).
• Microwave it for 4 minutes. Watch closely to ensure that the water stays in the bowl and the citrus peels do not burn.
• If possible, leave the bowl in the microwave (with the door closed) for 12 hours.
• Too time-consuming, or just not doable for you? That's okay too. Let the bowl sit in the closed microwave for half an hour then, if the burnt smell persists, continue to step 5.

5. Still bad odors in your microwave? Leave an open box of baking soda on your microwave tray overnight.

• It will neurtalize the odor without adding to the smelly situation in any way.
• You can also place coffee grounds from your morning coffee in a bowl in the microwave all day while you are at work.
• If you don't mind coffee smell, you can microwave 2 tablespoons of coffee grounds in a half cup of water for 2-3 minutes to expedite the process.

Put vinegar in a glass and microwave it.
After it boils take it out and clean your microwave with a disposable towel. Hope this helps.

It is very possible it may have burnt wire or burnt capacitor. Remove unit, remove top cover and look inside to see if you see any burn marks or burnt wires. Also check fuse to see if it is good or not.

you have an electric short and wires and wire covers are probally burnt. do not use take it in for repairs or replacement.

Hey
There are several things you can do to help git rid of that smell
First get a mild cleaner with bleach (soft scrub ect!) and clean entire oven inside and try getting that scorch mark off! a little pressure should lessen it ! (there is no filter inside! The plastic inside covering holds smells for a long time! you can also put a cup of white vinigar inside warm on high for 1 minute and leave in overnight!
