My microwave has a kit installed when installing in a cabnet. One of the vents in the back is routed up, over and out the top of the microwave. Some microwaves need to be free standing because some vent on the side and/or back of the unit.
Proper ventilation! or you might burn it up!
Both my old and new microwaves are for RV's and have a metal vent on the bottom of the microwave for fresh air intake thru the bottom grill and a larger metal exhaust vent on top.
I am taking the old microwave to the Recycling Center tomorrow. If it was the magnetron, they are hard to find for this model and can be costly. Thereby, they are not worth the cost to fix.
