If your Swift kitchen us like ours then the wood surround above the microwave is screwed in through the cupboards either side. Unscrew that and you'll see a plywood sheet holding the microwave down. Slide that out and you can then lift it up and out (don't forget to pop the plug through the hole in the side of the cupboard).
I replaced ours two weeks ago with a cheap one from Asda. I created a new set of plinths to hold the feet, moved the plastic slides for the plywood holder down to fit then flipped the original wood surround upside down.
More space around the replacement should improve heat removal.
The cooling fan in the original died so it cut out after about two minutes if use.
