What C-21
actually means.
C-21 on a Dacor pro stove means the internal temperature rose abnormally high. Dacor's owner step is to restart the appliance.

What to do when C-21 shows on the stoveKind of codeOven heating
The oven part of the stove was set to bake or broil and did not warm the way the controls expected, or took far too long to get there. On an electric stove a bake or broil element that has burned through is the everyday reason; on a gas stove the oven igniter and the valve it opens are looked at first. The wiring and the relay on the board are checked before the board itself is blamed.
Usually leads toStove oven heating repair
The oven part of a stove that stays cold, heats slowly or bakes too hot or too cool, fixed at the bake and broil elements, the oven igniter, the gas valve or the temperature sensor.

Recipes take much longer or much less time than they should, cakes burn on the outside and stay raw inside, or an oven thermometer disagrees with the display by more than a little.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Dacor's own guidance for C-21 on its stoves. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Turn the oven off and keep the door closed while it cools; if there is smoke or flame, keep it shut and call 911.
Once cool, restart the stove.
Should C-21 show again, leave the oven unused and book a visit.
