KitchenAid Range / Wall Oven
KitchenAid Range / Wall Oven C Error Code
What it means
C indicates that the oven temperature display is set to Celsius rather than Fahrenheit. KitchenAid notes that an oven in Celsius mode will not display a temperature above 260.
Try this first
- This is a temperature-display setting, not an appliance failure.
- Check the temperature-unit setting for your exact model.
- Use the model-specific control procedure to change the display from Celsius to Fahrenheit if desired.
- If the display reaches a maximum of 260 while set to Celsius, that behavior is expected.
Can I keep using it?✅ Temperature setting
Repair usually required?✅ No repair normally needed
If the error keeps returning
If you cannot change the temperature units, use the Owner's Manual instructions for your exact KitchenAid model.
