Will the R09 Countertop Dishwasher work without adding dishwasher salt?

Yes, the machine can operate normally without dishwasher salt. However, the salt shortage indicator will remain lit on the panel throughout the cycle, but this won’t affect the dishwasher’s cleaning performance. That said, if your local water hardness is high, we recommend adding dishwasher salt to the softener to prevent watermarks and calcium buildup, which can affect the machine’s lifespan.

How do I set the delayed start function on the HAVA R09 Dishwasher?

To activate the delay start function, first select your desired wash cycle. Then, press the "Delay" button to set the timer. Each time you press the "Delay" button, the delay time will increase, allowing you to choose a delay between 1 and 18 hours. Once you've selected your preferred delay, press the "Start/Pause" button to begin the countdown. The wash cycle will start automatically after the selected delay time has passed. If you wish to cancel the delay, simply press and hold the "Delay" button.

What is the Self-Cleaning function of the HAVA R09 used for?

The Self-Cleaning function is recommended for regular use to maintain optimal dishwashing performance by thoroughly rinsing the interior of the dishwasher. If you use the dishwasher daily, it's advised to run the Self-Clean cycle every two weeks. You can also add detergent during the cycle to help remove stains more effectively.

Do both water supply options (faucet connection and water tank) consume 5 liters of water?
