A:AnswerHi there. Thank you for reaching out about your LG MVEM1825F Over-the-Range Microwave. We understand your situation and appreciate you sharing your experience with the timer function. Based on our official resources, the MVEM1825F features a dedicated kitchen timer designed for overall convenience. In many of our microwaves, the timer is integrated within the control panel, so it may not function entirely independently of the cooking operation as you experienced with your previous unit.
Try using the kitchen timer button by itself and then verify if the display counts down while the microwave is actively cooking. Sometimes a specific setting or combination of buttons enables a separate timer function; you might also consider experimenting with a lower power or standby mode to see if the timer operates concurrently.

A:AnswerThe bottom needs to be open for the vent fan intake to work and the top has to be clear above for the vent fan exhaust. Above cabinet has to be 14 inches or less from the back wall. So not really. It's meant to take the place of a range hood/or add a range hood.
A:AnswerI'm also a member with free installation, but when they delivered they said it was drop off only. No installation or haul away of old microwave or range hood.

A:AnswerHi, Bob! As long as they are the same dimensions as the LG - 1.8 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave with Sensor Cooking and EasyClean Model:MVEM1825F. Take a look at the specifications: https://device.report/m/01ac55d4d9394fbb3a5eef9a6653f5976a5a3040595831526ed2be9d44d84f50.pdf. ~Rita
A:AnswerTo my understanding, this microwave can be vented either way. I had someone install it and he indicated that the instructions provide the adaption methodology.
A:AnswerIt works with Alexa. You have to set up a LG account and then install the LG ThinQ skill in your Alexa app. You can also install the LG ThinQ app on your phone. The Alexa skill really doesn't do that much.
A:AnswerHi there. Thanks for reaching out. If your new microwave is the same brand as the old one, you may be able to reuse the existing mounting bracket. LG recommends that you use a LG mounting bracket for this LG microwave. `Jai.
