# Monogram oven: LOC is Child Lockout, a feature rather than an error

### What the appliance is actually doing

Child Lockout — a feature, not an error. It stops the oven being turned on accidentally, and it is switched on more often by a cloth wiped across the panel than by anybody deciding to use it.

### Which machines this one applies to

Monogram professional ranges and wall ovens. Monogram says plainly on their own range and oven table that they cannot list every code for every model past and present, so a code missing from their table is not proof that your appliance cannot raise it — and a code in it is not proof that yours can. The model number settles it.

### What to do about it

- Hold the lock control on the panel for a few seconds to clear it. The exact combination is in the owner’s manual for your model.
- If it keeps switching itself on, something is pressing the panel — a spill under the membrane, or a pan leaning against it.
- It is not a repair and nothing on the appliance has failed.

### Where this goes next

The job this usually becomes is [diagnostic visit](/services/diagnostic-visit/), and every one of those pages carries a starting figure and the reasons that move it. If it turns out to be nothing — and on this make a real share of these are modes rather than problems — the visit ends there and you pay the diagnostic and nothing else, or call [(305) 614-3572](tel:+13056143572) and describe what the display is doing before booking anything.
