Hi there, we appreciate your question about the MVEL2033F microwave, and we understand you’re checking whether the front control panel lights up, since you only see the time display illuminated. We understand how helpful it is to clearly see the buttons while using your microwave. On this model, the SmoothTouch™ control buttons do not light up. Only the LED scrolling display shows the clock and cooking information. To help improve visibility, you can try: ⦁ Using the Exterior Light button to brighten the cooktop area ⦁ Making sure the Interior Light turns on when the door opens, which can help illuminate the panel slightly Here’s the model link for more details: https://www.lg.com/us/cooking-appliances/lg-mvel2033f-over-the-range-microwave If you need further assistance, feel free to email lgdigitalcare@lg.sprinklrsupport.com. ‑Rich

Hello, Craig! Thank you for sharing your question with us about the LG Over-The-Range Microwave (MVEL2033F). The interior and exterior surface lights are located in two different places: the cooktop light is underneath the bottom panel, while the cavity light is positioned inside behind the top vent grill.

Hello, Jane! Thank you for sharing your question with us about the LG Over-The-Range Microwave (MVEL2033F). The minimum clearance between the bottom of the microwave and the cooking surface of the range should be 30 inches. This ensures safe operation, proper ventilation, and prevents excess heat exposure to the microwave. Since the MVEL2033F is about 3 inches taller than your existing unit, you’ll want to measure carefully to confirm that after installation, the bottom of the microwave still maintains at least that 30‑inch clearance above the stovetop. If your current setup is already at the minimum, adding the taller unit could reduce the gap below recommended standards.
