What C-F2
actually means.
The control watches every key. C-F2 tells you it caught a key behaving wrongly, and Dacor's first step is simple: touch STOP and try the button again. It only becomes a repair if the code keeps returning.

What to do when C-F2 shows on the microwaveKind of codeControl board and touchpad
The electronics that read the keys and run the cycle have flagged a problem with themselves: a key that the control sees as held down for too long, a membrane keypad worn through or swollen by steam, a lost link between the keypad and the board, or a board that failed its own check after a surge. A breaker reset now and then clears a glitch; a stuck key or a code that comes straight back points to the keypad or the board.

Tracing a dead display, keys that do not answer or a code that keeps returning to the keypad, the ribbon, the relays or the main board, and replacing only the part that failed.
Shows up asWhat a Microwave Error Code Is Telling You
A microwave error code may be a letter and a number on the display, a lock or demo word, a row of dashes, or a beep with a blinking clock, and it can show while the microwave still heats or block every key until it is cleared.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Dacor's own guidance for C-F2 on its microwaves. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Touch STOP, then press the button you wanted once more.
Wipe the panel dry, since moisture on the keys can confuse them.
If C-F2 keeps returning, book a visit to test the key panel and its connection to the control.

What not to do
C-F2 is not the child lock, which shows Lock on this model and ignores the keys on purpose. It differs from C-d0, which is about keys being held for more than a minute.

Microwave hood combination
The microwave that hangs from the wall cabinets above the burners, heating food in its cavity while its own fan, light and filters handle the steam and grease rising from the pans beneath it.
Built-in microwave
A microwave set into a tall cabinet or a wall of cabinetry at eye level, either a countertop body wrapped in a trim kit or a true built-in model, including speed and convection microwaves that brown as well as heat.
Microwave drawer
A microwave built under a counter or into a kitchen island that opens like a drawer at the touch of a key, with a motor and gears sliding its cavity out toward you.
In Dacor's own words
