A:AnswerHi Nancy - We certainly appreciate your loyalty! While our current over-the-range microwaves offer a night light setting, it is not programmable. Keep in touch! Sue
A:AnswerHi JB - The unit has a Four-speed, 400-CFM venting fan system to quickly removes smoke, steam and odors from the cooktop to keep kitchen air fresh and clean. Sue
A:AnswerHi Cul - It can be installed under a cabinet, even if there is not a cooking surface underneath; however, the height clearances must still be met. Over- the- range models must be installed 66" from the floor to the bottom of the cabinet that the microwave attaches to. This can also be measured as 30" from the cooktop to the bottom of the cabinet it attaches to. We suggest to view page 7 of the Owner's Manual- MOUNTING SPACE: https://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=49-40765.pdf - Keep in touch! Sue
A:AnswerHi Barry - The microwave is shipped from the factory to vent out the top (vertically). No kit required. Check out the Installation Instructions for complete details: https://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=49-40765.pdf - All over-the-range microwaves can be vented to the outside using an equivalent total of 140 feet of rigid 3 1/4" x 10" rectangular or rigid 6" round ducting (sold separately). Thanks for choosing GE! Sue
A:AnswerThis has happened to my previous 3 microwaves over the years. Each time, it was something called a magnetron. It is a very expensive part - usually over 100.00 for just the part. To me, it isn’t cost effective. Microwaves seem to last only 3-4 years. We have just replaced them, but will no longer buy the fanciest ones. We have been lucky to find great deals on open box items.
A:AnswerHi JEMML - The cardboard cover on the right top or side wall of the microwave interior is there by design. The cardboard (mica) covers the waveguide system that feeds microwave energy into the cavity and should not be removed. The microwave should not be used for any function if this cardboard cover is not in place. If removed, it would require service to replace.
To clean, follow the instructions in the owner's manual for cleaning the interior of the oven. The same instructions apply.

A:AnswerThey are not all the same width. Whoever made the cabinet opening in my house did not make it 30 inches wide. It is a little narrower and a standard 29 7/8 microwave is too wide. A 29 3/4 microwave is a very snug fit. I would double check the size of the opening. It should be 30 inches. Good luck.
A:AnswerHi 1952- Yes! This model has "Add 30 Sec" option. You can use this feature two ways: It will add 30 seconds to the time counting down each time the pad is pressed. It can be used as a quick way to set 30 seconds of cooking time. Thanks for choosing GE. Enjoy! Sue
A:AnswerThe only thing that actually 'vents' air from a microwave is the Vent Fan. That fan must be connected to an exhaust outlet and it is turned either On or Off from the front control panel.
But, Yes, you can definitely cook in the microwave without turning the vent fan on.

A:AnswerHello DOVE55 - this is Nancy at GE Appliances and we are happy to help you. The current over-the-range microwaves that also offer the auto night light feature are the Advantiums. The Advantiums have both oven and microwave capability. We hope this helps! Thanks for checking with us!
A:AnswerYes, vents to either top or back (does require flipping the vent fan if you need it to vent out the back as the standard configuration it top venting).
