# Samsung range showing C-10

C-10 shows up when you run the oven self-diagnosis in the SmartThings app and the oven starts out very cold or very hot.

## What C-10 actually means.

C-10 shows up when you run the oven self-diagnosis in the SmartThings app and the oven starts out very cold or very hot. Samsung says that is a limit of the sensor during the test, not a defect.

What to do when C-10 shows on the range

### Kind of code Mode, not a failure

Something the range was told to do, or a state it chose on purpose — a control lock, a Sabbath setting, a demo mode that lights the display but never heats, a pan warning on an induction zone. Nothing has worn out, and no part is needed.

### Usually leads to No repair

If the oven heats normally, ignore C-10 when it appears only during the app test.

### Shows up as Range Error Code

The range display shows letters, numbers or a flashing symbol, beeps, and stops the oven, a cooking zone or a clean.

### Make Samsung

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from Samsung's own guidance for C-10 on its ranges. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

If the oven heats normally, ignore C-10 when it appears only during the app test.

02

If C-10 appears on its own while cooking, reset the oven.

03

Book a visit if it keeps appearing outside the test.

### Cleared?

The range was set right without a new part. If the same message comes back while a burner or the oven is in use, or the range cuts out again, treat it as a new problem and book it.

### What not to do

C-10 during a diagnosis run does not mean the oven sensor has failed; that is C-20.

## What you may notice with it.

The range problem C-10 tends to arrive with. Answer these at the range before anyone is booked.

## Questions about C-10.

### Can I clear C-10 myself?

If the oven heats normally, ignore C-10 when it appears only during the app test.

### Should I worry about C-10 after running a SmartThings check on my Samsung range?

Not if the oven heats normally; Samsung says the test can raise C-10 when the oven starts very hot or very cold. Run the test again with the oven at room temperature.

### When does C-10 on a Samsung range need attention?

When it appears during normal cooking without any diagnosis running. Reset the oven first and book a visit if it keeps coming back.
