Safety: Unplug the microwave before cleaning or moving it.

User-level steps:

1. Dry the control panel: If there was recent steam or liquid spill, wipe the touch panel with a dry, soft cloth. Do not spray cleaner directly on the panel; spray onto the cloth first.
2. Let it air out: Leave the door open and allow the unit to sit unplugged for 30–60 minutes to let any internal moisture evaporate.
3. Power reset: Plug back in and test the keypad. Try multiple keys to see if the error recurs.
4. Check for physical damage: Look for cracks, dents, or punctures on the touch panel that may indicate a damaged membrane.

Technician-level checks:

Remove the control panel assembly and reseat the keypad ribbon cable on the control board.
Test the keypad membrane for continuity on key matrix lines.
Replace the control panel / keypad assembly or main PCB if defective.

If E06 persists after drying and resetting, professional service is recommended.

Microwave shows E06 and beeps; keypad and functions may be locked out.
