If you boil vinegar in your microwave, make sure you run a glass of boiling water through it was well. The vinegar may condense on the convection fan otherwise, which can't be wiped off. The steam should help dilute that to get rid of the vinegar. Also, use some water and baking soda to clean it out after the vinegar steam bath to help get rid of the vinegar smell...pluss, baking soda is abrasive and will help scour the inside of your nuker. Just make sure not to use the baking soda on the emission plate (the metal plate on the inside). That can scratch it, which may cause arcing (sparks) while using it.
