Put 1 cup of water in a 2 cup container.
Add a grated lemon...the peel, lemon, and juice.
Add 5-6 whole cloves.

Boil on high, in microwave, for two minutes.

Let cool completely without opening the door.

Wipe down interior with the same lemon water liquid.

Vinegar works great but LEMON smells better and works just as good.

Given the wide range of foods that get passed through it, your microwave oven can get a little smelly from time to time. Usually you can eliminate odors by giving the oven a good cleaning.
1. Unplug the oven and unfasten the cabinet body, using a screwdriver. The body should be attached along the back as well as along the sides or bottom.
2. Slide the cabinet body back slightly to clear any internal brackets, then lift it off.
3. Clean the oven, using a vacuum with plastic crevice attachment. Vacuum the fan and other internal parts, then vacuum the vents underneath the oven, on the back and inside the chamber.
4. Reassemble the oven and plug it in.
5. Fill a small bowl with a 50-50 mixture of water and white vinegar, then set it in the oven and turn the oven on high for 5 minutes. When the mixture boils, it will remove stubborn smells inside the vents and loosen food particles on the oven walls.
6. Wipe down the oven walls with a clean sponge.
