Q: QuestionDoes this microwave have a programmable night light feature? Currently I have a GE Profile Space Maker 1800 and set the light above the stove to come on at 9 pm and turn off at 6 am. Thanks for the help!

Asked 5 years ago by tsh30612.

• A:Answer Hi tsh30612 - Thanks for considering GE Profile Model PVM9005SJSS. We certainly appreciate your loyalty. This microwave does not have a programmable night light feature. Our GE Profile™ Over-the-Range Oven with Advantium® Technology PSA9120SFSS has an Auto Night Light feature. You can use this feature to set the surface light to come on and go off at a certain time. Auto Night Light will turn on the surface light to the night setting, when the clock time matches the Auto Night Light on time, even if the surface light is on the bright setting. Keep in touch at GEAppliances.com. Sue

Q: QuestionHow does the microwave do with defrosting (by sensor)? We have had microwaves that basically cook the food or don't defrost at all. Another sensor question, what about Pizza--is there any quick reheat/sensor function for that?

You can defrost by time, weight, or sensor. The manual comes with a complete guide with the best tips for defrosting multiple types of food. And how could we forget pizza?

Q: QuestionI have a PVM9215SF1SS which is an over the range microwave (same size) with built in exhaust fan (hood). Will this model (PVM9005SJSS) exhaust duct line up with my existing one??? My existing exhaust duct is in the back (inside wall).

Asked 6 years ago by Louie.

• A:Answer Hi Louie - Yes, the over-the-range microwave ovens are designed for adaptation for the following three types of ventilation: 1. Outside Exhaust (Vertical – Delivered from factory in vertical position). 2. Outside Exhaust (Horizontal). 3. Recirculating (Non-vented ductless). 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 (round transition adapter must be used).

Q: QuestionHow muchis the energy cost this saves you yearly?

Asked 6 years ago by Williams.

• A:Answer Hi Williams- Energy Guide labels are supplied with refrigerators, dishwashers, laundry products, and room air conditioners. The label is often on the appliance itself, and most can also be downloaded at GEAppliances.com. Some appliances, including microwaves are not subject to DOE (Department of Energy) requirements for energy usage and therefore do not have energy guide labels.
