What does Unox WC06 mean?
WC06 is a lack-of-power warning on the hood accessory. The hood is not receiving the electrical supply it needs to operate. The oven can still be used while the hood is unavailable and the warning flags the missing power to the accessory.
Symptoms
- WC06 warning referencing the hood
- Hood does not operate
- Oven still usable without hood function
- Warning persists until power is restored
Common causes
- Hood not powered or its supply tripped
- Loose or open power connection to the hood
- Circuit breaker for the hood down
- Hood power board fault
Diagnostic steps
- 01
Check the hood supply
Confirm the hood is powered and its circuit breaker is not tripped.
- 02
Inspect the connection
With power off, check the power connection between the oven and the hood is secure.

Test the supply
Measure the hood supply voltage with a multimeter to confirm power is present.

Service the hood board
If power is present but the hood does not run, have the hood power board checked.

WC06 affects the hood accessory. Checking the supply may be straightforward, but testing the hood power connection and board involves mains-voltage work for a qualified Unox technician if power is present yet the hood stays off.
