  • QuestionHow does the power level work

    Asked by Anonymous.

    • Answer It works just fine. All you have to do is press time, then input the length of time you want it to run (if you press the one for one minute, it will only run for one second. You have to enter as: 100, if only two digits are pressed, it will run for that many seconds.) Then you can press the power level button and then select a number from 1 - 9, then press the start. (1 being 10% of the total power output of the microwave, ect, all the way up to 9 being 90% of the microwave power.)I hope this helps.

  • QuestionIf set to vent externally to outside, is the vent out the top of the unit or out the back ? So then, can it be mounted flush to the wall ? Does it mount to the wall or from the top ?

    Asked by starman.

    • Answer Hello there! Thank you for your inquiry about the LG MVEM1721F Over-the-Range Microwave. We understand you're asking about the venting configuration and mounting options. When the microwave is set to vent externally, the venting is done through the top of the unit. This means the vent is directed out through the top of the microwave, which is designed for installation under upper kitchen cabinets. As for mounting, the microwave is intended to be mounted underneath the upper cabinets, and it does not mount flush to the wall. It requires a proper gap above the unit for the venting system to function effectively, and the installation typically involves securing it to the wall and the cabinets. If you're considering mounting it in a cabinet under the countertop, that setup might not be ideal due to the venting system. The unit is designed for over-the-range installation with external venting or recirculating mode when necessary, so placing it in a tight space could lead to some limitations. https://www.lg.com/us/cooking-appliances/lg-mvem1721f-over-the-range-microwave#pdp_specs If you need more detailed assistance or installation tips, please send us a private message on social media @LGUSSupport, and our team will be happy to guide you.

  • QuestionHI, does this microwave come with a range hood? If not can you suggest another model which does We are looking to replace an Electrolux E130MH55GSB which is a microwave / hood combination Thanks Kevin

    Asked by KevinW.

    • Answer Hello there, Kevin. Thank you for your question about the LG MVEM1721F Over-the-Range Microwave. We understand you're looking for a microwave that also functions as a range hood. While this model does not include a built-in range hood, it does feature a ventilation system with a 300 CFM exhaust fan to help with ventilation. If you're specifically looking for a microwave with a combined range hood feature, we would recommend considering the LG LMV1831ST. This model provides both microwave functionality and a more robust range hood with higher ventilation capacity. https://www.lg.com/us/cooking-appliances/lg-mvem1721f-over-the-range-microwave#pdp_specs We hope this helps, and if you have any further questions or need assistance, please send us a private message on social media @LGUSSupport, and we'll be happy to assist you! —Renzo

  • QuestionCan the microwave be installed without ventig

    Asked by Granny.

    • Answer Hi there! Thank you for your inquiry about the LG MVEM1721F Over-the-Range Microwave. We understand how important it is to find the right installation setup for your kitchen. This microwave can be installed without external venting. It includes a recirculating ventilation option (room venting) using a charcoal filter.

  • QuestionI am thinking of purchasing this microwave. I currently have an LG above range microwave that needs to be replaced. I have an exterior venting system. Can I bypass that and just have it vent inside through the charcoal filter?

Yes, you can use this microwave in a recirculating mode with the charcoal filter, allowing it to vent inside instead of through the exterior venting system.

  • QuestionIs there a way to quiet the door from opening and shutting so loud?

    Asked by Anonymous.

    • Answer Thank you for reaching us regarding LG Microwave. To reduce the noise from the door of your LG MVEM1721F microwave when opening and shutting, consider the following solutions: 1. Lubrication Applying a silicone-based lubricant to the hinges can help reduce friction, making the door open and close more quietly. Ensure to wipe away any excess lubricant to avoid it dripping onto surfaces. 2. Adjusting the Door Alignment If the door is misaligned, it may cause loud noises when opening or closing. Check the alignment and adjust the hinges if necessary. This may involve loosening screws slightly, repositioning the door, and then tightening the screws again. 3. Adding Dampening Material Placing a soft material such as felt pads or rubber bumpers on the door frame or the door itself can absorb some of the impact noise when the door closes. 4. Checking for Obstructions Ensure there are no obstructions around the door that could cause it to hit or scrape against other surfaces, which can amplify noise.
