Default Defrost

Hi, this kinda sucks for a first post... buttt
when I turn on the defogger/defroster it smells, i think like the old fry/chip smell.. how would I clean this? should i just stick a powerful vacuum on top of the vents? or is there a way to get in there or underneath?

Or should I try to have the dealer check it out since I just got it and am supposed to go back to get my spare key programmed (although I'll prob just program it myself in a few mins, with the advice from the forums)
