What C-10
actually means.
Samsung says C-10 can appear when you run a self-diagnosis of the oven from the SmartThings app and the oven starts out very cold or very hot. Samsung calls this a limit of the sensor during the test, not a defect, and it does not affect cooking.

What to do when C-10 shows on the stoveKind of codeMode, not a failure
Something the stove was switched into, often by accident, rather than something that broke: a control lock pressed while wiping the panel, a Sabbath setting, a showroom demo mode that lights the display and heats nothing, a reminder that a spot on the stovetop is still hot. No part is worn out, and the stove's own keys put it right.
Usually leads toNo repair
If C-10 appeared only during the app test and the oven heats normally, you can ignore it.
Shows up asStove Display Blank or Flashing
The clock and display on the stove have gone dark, or they flash the time, a word or a string of characters and ignore the keys you press.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Samsung's own guidance for C-10 on its stoves. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
If C-10 appeared only during the app test and the oven heats normally, you can ignore it.
Let the oven reach room temperature and run the diagnosis again if you want a clean result.
If C-10 appears during normal cooking, reset the stove at the breaker and book a visit if it returns.
Cleared?
The stove is working again and no part was needed. If the same letters come back while a burner or the oven is on, or the stove switches itself off again in the middle of dinner, book it as a new problem.
What not to do
C-10 is not a sign that the oven sensor is failing when it shows only during the app test. It matters only if it appears on its own while you cook.
