How to simplify javascript date object?

Question

I create this date object:

var date = new Date(06, 2016);

When I open browser watch to check the created object I see this:

Mon Jun 06 2016 12:51:11 GMT+0300 (Jerusalem Daylight Time)

How can I simplify the above date object to this:

2016-06-06

You could do this...

date.toISOString().split("T")[0] // "2016-06-06"
