In a method for carrying out a cleaning procedure for a cooking appliance, a first tank of the cooking appliance is filled by a user with water. A first portion of water in the first tank is moved into a buffer store and then moved from the buffer store into a cooking chamber to provide a first treatment agent therein. The first treatment agent remains in the cooking chamber for a first time period. A second portion of water in the first tank is moved into the buffer store and the first treatment agent is moved into the first tank. The second portion of water in the buffer store is into the cooking chamber to provide a second treatment agent in the cooking chamber. The second treatment agent remains in the cooking chamber for a second time period and the second treatment agent is then moved into the first tank.

A steam cleaning system for cleaning a microwave oven without chemical cleaners includes an oven. A bowl is provided that contains a liquid and the bowl is selectively positioned within the oven. The oven boils the liquid thereby producing steam. The steam penetrates debris stuck to the oven thereby facilitating the debris to be cleaned from the oven. A cloth is provided and the cloth is selectively positioned in the bowl. The cloth is made of a liquid permeable material such that the cloth absorbs the liquid. Moreover, the steam is released from the cloth when the oven is turned on to heat the liquid.
