What C1 (range cooktop) means

On the Dacor DOP30T940IS induction range cooktop, C1 means the internal temperature of a burner has risen abnormally high. The cooktop shuts that burner down to protect itself and shows the code. This is a different meaning from C1 on Modernist DTI cooktops, which use it for a shorted top sensor. Expect the burner to stay off until the unit cools and the condition clears.

Common causes of C1 (range cooktop)

  • Cooling airflow to the burner restricted
  • The cooling fan too slow or stopped
  • A temperature sensor reading wrongly
  • The burner's power electronics overheating
✓ One safe check you can try

1. Turn every burner off and let the cooktop cool completely. 2. Switch the cooktop off and back on. 3. Still seeing C1? Cut power at the breaker for 30 seconds, then restore it. 4. If the code appears again, stop using that burner and schedule service.

! Why to stop there
  • Whether the heat comes from poor airflow, a weak fan or a sensor misreading
  • Whether the burner electronics were stressed by the overheating
  • Which part is needed, confirmed before we quote
Opening a panel yourself does not automatically cancel a manufacturer warranty, but it can cause accidental damage, and some manufacturers set their own service conditions. Check your warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.
C1 (range cooktop)C1 (range cooktop) questions
Does C1 on my DOP30T940IS mean the burner is damaged?

Not necessarily. It means one burner's internals ran warmer than the cooktop allows. We check airflow, the fan and the sensor first, since those are common reasons for that reading, before we look at the electronics.

Can I use the other burners?

The code is tied to one burner, but we suggest not working around it. Restart once as the owner's manual describes, and if it returns, let us test the cooktop.
