Common problems

What should I do if food is overcooked in the microwave leading to a lasting odour?

Food overcooking is a common concern.

However, most strong odours can be easily removed by placing a mixture of 3 cups of water, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and 10 - 12 cloves in the microwave and bringing it to a rolling boil.

Allow the mixture to cool on its own in the microwave without opening the door. The steam generated helps to cleanse the appliance of its odour.
