Q: QuestionWe are replacing model jvm3160df4bb. Is this model in stainless steel the same dimensions as we have very little space between the backsplash and bottom of the microwave. Also if it is, will the prior installation hardware location work for the new model?

Asked 2 years ago by Traveling2some.

• A:Answer I think the dimensions are exactly the same. I found the anchor holes are in the same place so you may need to drill new holes

Asked 2 years ago by BettyB29.

This question was asked about the related product: GE - 1.6 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave with Convenience Cooking Controls - White

Q: QuestionWhy does the inside fill with smoke after about a minute of running?

Asked 2 years ago by Emma.

• A:Answer Could be excess machine oil in the blower fan motor just burning off, if it doesn't smell like electrical or plastic it may just be temporary while its new. I'd watch it carefully though and make sure it doesn't continue to smoke or get worse over time. Maybe call GE or check if anyone on the internet has posted this problem. Good luck.

Q: QuestionMilk hot on top and cold at the bottom, is this normal? I just switched to the GE microwave, and it does not heat up drink properly. I did not had this issue with my previous microwave. is it broken? Or is it an expected issue with this specific device?

Asked 2 years ago by Aria.

• A:Answer Microwaves have a "stirrer" which is a spinning metallic plate in the top of the housing that disrupts the microwaves and bounces them around the oven's interior. That and the rotating turntable are supposed to help heat things more or less evenly but sometimes there can be hot or cold spots, try putting the containers you are heating not exactly in the middle of the turntable, if it consistently not heating evenly perhaps the stirrer is not functioning.

Q: QuestionI have a GE microwave model JVM3160 that is vented to the outside. Is the charcoal filter required?

Asked 2 years ago by KenO.

• A:Answer Probably not required, but likely recommended, otherwise your vent pipe might over time start to develop odors from things like fish that would be neutralized by the charcoal filter. Check your owners manual to see if it has any recommendations. I just replaced my old internally vented one that didn't even have a charcoal filter installed, never really noticed a problem but did notice a bit of residue from the fan exhaust on the underside of my nearby cabinetry develop over time.

Q: QuestionI have a Model:JVM1460AA that need replacement. Can I install the JVM3160DFCC using same space and use the same venting?

Asked 2 years ago by SaraT.

• A:Answer If its the same size, most likely you can. Look at the overall dimensions and see if they are the same, and if they have the same kind of venting. My new GE was manufactured so I could configure the fan output to either outside through the top, outside through the back, or inside venting, just a couple screws and rotate the fan unit inside the housing to fit the kind of install you want to do.
