Quick answer
C0 means the top sensor is open. The manual says restart, then unplug for 30 seconds or more, then call a service center.
Model compatibility: Dacor reuses codes across series and model years, so C0 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
