Important information about monogram range cooktop child safety lock that all Monogram appliance owners should be aware of.
Monogram range and cooktop child safety lock features are designed to prevent accidental activation of burners or oven controls by children. This notice provides a reminder to use available control lockout features and additional protective measures for households with young children.
Risk Indicators to Be Aware Of
- Young children in the home who can reach cooktop controls
- Controls that have been accidentally activated by a child or pet
- Surface burners or oven previously turned on without adult intent
- Knobs that can be pulled off and potentially ingested
Activating the Control Lock and Safety Measures
- Consult your Monogram owner’ manual to locate the control lock or lockout feature for your specific model.
- For electronic touch controls: press and hold the designated lock button (typically labeled “Lock” or depicted with a padlock icon) for three seconds until the lock indicator illuminates.
- For knob-style controls: knob covers are available as an aftermarket safety accessory to prevent accidental rotation.
- Never leave young children unattended in a kitchen where the range or cooktop is in use.
- Use rear burners when cooking with children present and turn pot handles inward away from the front of the cooktop.
- Remind all household members to engage the control lock feature when the appliance is not in use.
