A:AnswerBottom of microwave is about 10 inches minimum from stove top. Which I think means from top of microwave to bottom of the top of stove top is 27 inches. Or so. People think it needs to be up on those really high up and smallest cabinet. Not true. It’s way it is written in manual. You measure from bottom of the top cabinet to top of the stove. It’s about 27 or 30 inches. Leaves foot or more over the stove. Legal. I know. I am short. And changed my cabinets up above to use longer ones. So I can use it. Originally these short top cabinets were made to accommodate two oven or combo oven and old fashion big microwave from back in the 70’s. So that is why they made small cabinets.
A:AnswerIf it’s coming out of top. Where do you think the air is coming from. Not from inside the microwave. It’s coming from the stove under the microwave. I see the stream of steam going towards the vents in bottom. And if it suppose to be coming out of inside the microwave I have no idea how microwave works. I assume fan was there to use over stove. I don’t feel that much fan on the table top models on back. Or side. If it’s connected outside than you would not feel the the wind from the fan up above. It would be venting to outside.
A:AnswerHi Dano! This microwave oven is designed for adaptation to
the following three types of ventilation: recirculating (non-ventilated ductless), outside back exhaust (horizontal duct), and outside top exhaust (vertical duct). -Chris
A:AnswerThanks for your inquiry. The Frigidaire model GMOS1964AF has a cooking wattage of 1,000 watts for its microwave function. We hope that helps! -Yhano
A:AnswerWe appreciate your inquiry, Vick. All of our over-the-range (OTR) microwaves are factory preset to vent internally – it will recirculate the air back into the room. -Yhano
A:AnswerThanks for your inquiry, Vick! Yes, this Frigidaire over-the-range microwave is designed to offer both recirculating and external venting options. This means you can set it up to either recirculate air back into the kitchen or vent it outside, depending on your kitchen's ventilation setup. We hope this helps. - Maria
A:AnswerHey there, Hill! The model GMOS1964AF has Maximum Air Flow Capacity 400 cubic feet per minute. If you wish to know more, kindly check on the website's "Show Full Specs" section. -Yhano
A:AnswerIt isn't. But, it's powerful -- which is what most people want from an exhaust fan. There isn't much difference between the High, Medium, and Low settings either. Ours vents out the top of the microwave, not direct-vented to the wall or attic, which may or may not affect how noisy it is.
A:AnswerIf you choose to vent externally, it is a vertical vent, using the provided adapter plate. Otherwise, it vents out the top, above the door, into the room.
A:AnswerNo, it's simply a high and low setting. The high setting is very bright, and the low is still pretty bright -- not what I would use as a "night light"
A:AnswerVertically, at the top of the door, toward the front. By default, it vents into the room or you can direct vent through a wall or attic, using the supplied adapter plate.
A:AnswerIt is only supplied with an adapter plate, which is basically a damper to redirect the airflow to vent to the outside. You would need to supply the ductwork.
A:AnswerNo they are not back lit. The lettering is printed on the glass, and are touch-sensitive, sort of like a touch screen (not a tactile, click-style button)
A:AnswerNo. In fact I was disappointed with all the fingerprints and smears, etc. Soap and water and my dishcloth just made streaks when it dried. But I eventually found the perfect solution.
Please use a soft cloth and a 50/50 mix of vinegar and water. It shines up perfectly. It’s the same solution to clean flat screen TV’s. Put the solution on the cloth, not the appliance/electronic.
I do recommend this microwave.
