Hello there, Suzanne! Thanks for reaching out about your LG Microwave (MVEL2125X). When the microwave is installed to vent through the top, all airflow should be directed upward into the duct, so if the Extend‑A‑Vent isn’t pulling air and the rear vents are blowing downward toward the cooktop, it usually means the blower motor wasn’t rotated to the top‑vent position, the top vent knockout may still be in place, the duct connection may not be fully aligned or sealed, or the Extend‑A‑Vent filters may not be seated correctly. Reviewing the installation steps in the manual can help confirm the blower orientation and vent path are set up for top venting.
