# Monogram gas cooktop showing LOCKED

Monogram's stainless gas cooktops have a gas lockout set from the Lock Control pad.

## What LOCKED actually means.

Monogram's stainless gas cooktops have a gas lockout set from the Lock Control pad. When it engages, the LOCKED icon blinks and then stays lit; gas to the cooktop is shut off and the control is locked until you repeat the same steps.

What to do when LOCKED shows on the cooktop

### Kind of code Mode, not a failure

A state the cooktop was put in, or one it picked deliberately — a child lock, a demo mode that lights the keys but heats nothing, a residual-heat letter over a zone that is still warm, a prompt that no pan has been found. Nothing has broken and no part is called for.

### Usually leads to No repair

Make sure every knob is off; Monogram only lets the lockout change with all knobs off.

### Shows up as Cooktop Burner Won't Light

The igniter clicks but the gas never catches, the burner lights only after several tries, or nothing happens at all when the knob is turned.

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from Monogram's own guidance for LOCKED on its cooktops. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Make sure every knob is off; Monogram only lets the lockout change with all knobs off.

02

Press and hold Lock Control for three seconds until it beeps, then release within five seconds.

03

If LOCKED will not clear, book a visit.

### Cleared?

The cooktop came right without a new part. If the same message returns while a zone or burner is on, or the top shuts itself down again mid-meal, treat it as a fresh problem and book it.

### What not to do

LOCKED is not a gas valve failure. It is a feature someone turned on.

## What you may notice with it.

The cooktop problems LOCKED tends to arrive with. Answer these at the cooktop before anyone is booked.

## Questions about LOCKED.

### Can I clear LOCKED myself?

Make sure every knob is off; Monogram only lets the lockout change with all knobs off.

### Why won't my Monogram gas cooktop unlock?

Monogram's lockout only changes when every knob is off; turning it with a knob on produces a chime instead. Turn all knobs off, then hold Lock Control for three seconds.

### Does the Monogram lockout stop the gas or just the display?

It stops gas flow to the cooktop and locks the control, according to Monogram's manual.

### Why does my Monogram ZGU36RSLSS chime instead of locking?

A burner knob is probably not at Off. Monogram only lets the gas lockout change with every knob turned off, so check each one and hold Lock Control for three seconds again.
