Turn the microwave’s vent fan on whenever you use the oven range cooktop below it. The fan captures smoke, steam, and odors and also prevents the heat from the cooktop from damaging microwave components. If the microwave is cooking, the vent fan turns on automatically if the sensors detect too much heat from the cooktop. This is normal, and is designed to prevent microwave component damage. ^Daphane
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.According to the Owners Manual on the top left of page 11 “Turn the microwave’s vent fan on whenever you use the oven range cooktop below it. If the microwave is cooking, the vent fan turns on automatically if the sensors detect too much heat from the cooktop. We have never operated our oven at 500 degrees. What kind of fish needs to be cooked at 500 degrees for 20 minutes!!!,
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have not experienced this yet- but I doubt it would turn on automatically. My kitchen is still under construction- I do not currently have a sink, countertops or a working faucet. Sorry.
