Microwaves need adequate air clearance on each side, the rear and the top to function properly. This allows good circulation for the intake and discharge air vents. The PEM31DFBB is 12 1/8 H x 24 inches W x 12 7/8 D. We recommend making sure you have the space on the shelf for this size model. Provided below are the guidelines to ensure your Countertop Microwave has the correct air clearances. ~3" of clearance on both sides and the top. ~ 1" clearance in the rear. ~ The front edge of the Microwave (measured at the door) should sit at least 3" or more back on the counter or shelf to avoid accidental tipping. ~ If located on the counter near a Range, we recommend locating it at least 2 feet away from the Range.
