What F2
actually means.
F2 on a Dacor Modernist induction cooktop means communication with the touch-enabled IC failed. That chip reads your fingers on the glass, so the controls may stop responding.

What to do when F2 shows on the cooktopKind of codeTouch controls and keys
A key on the glass was held down too long, pressed with nothing there, or stopped answering altogether. Water, a spill or a pan resting on the key strip is ruled out first, then the touch board and its ribbon cable. If a zone keeps heating while the keys are dead, switch the cooktop off at the breaker.
Usually leads toTouch control repair
Glass touch keys and sliders that ignore a finger, start zones by themselves or stay locked, traced to the keys, the control board or the lock setting.
Shows up asCooktop Controls Unresponsive
Touch keys or a slider do nothing, the display lights but ignores every press, or a knob turns without starting its burner or element.

Before you book,

Each step comes from Dacor's own guidance for F2 on its cooktops. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Restart the cooktop with the POWER key.
If F2 continues, cut power for more than 30 seconds and restart.
Book a visit if the code comes back.
What not to do
F2 is not caused by a dirty keypad in the way d0 is. It is a chip-level communication problem.
