Technical details
Warning!
Dishwasher detergent is corrosive –
take care to keep it out of the reach of
children.
Make sure that children cannot get hold
of dishwasher detergent. If any is
accidentally swallowed, give plenty to
drink: one or two glasses of milk or
water. Do not try to induce vomiting.
Seek medical advice without delay. If
dish-washer detergent gets in the eyes,
rinse with plenty of water.
How much detergent?
The amount of detergent required depends
on the programme used and the water
hardness (see below).
Light wash
Pre-wash (5 g)
Main wash (12 g)
Main wash(12 g)
5g = ca 1 teaspoon
12 g = ca 1 tablespoon
Use only dishwasher deter-
gent
for both pre-wash and main wash. Ordinary
hand dish-washing detergent must not be
used, as the foam will interfere with proper
operation of the machine.
Water hardness varies from place to place, and
is measured in degrees of hardness (°dH). Your
water company should be able to tell you the
hardness of water in your area. The harder the
water, the more detergent you will need. Follow
the instructions on the packet.
In hard water areas, both the dishes and the
machine can develop a grey film after a while.
This can be removed by using the machine with
the pre-wash detergent replaced by two
tablespoonsful of citric acid. Use the pots and
pans programme.
If the water is very hard, use a rinse aid that
contains citric acid (acid rinse aid).
The amount of detergent depends
on the hardness of the water
Check that the spray arms
can rotate freely. Check that the
water supply is
turned on.
Close the door.
Close the door fully: if not, the
machine will
not start.
Cutlery basket
Intensive, Strong,

Load cutlery with the
handles downwards and
as spread out as possible.
Make sure that spoons do
not 'nest' with each other.
Avoid placing cutlery of
different metals –e.g.
silver and stainless steel –
in the same compartment.
It is also unsuitable to
place different grades of
stainless steel (check by
the surface colour) in
contact.
Knife basket
The cutlery basket has a
folding cover in the
middle. It can be used to
protect small items, but
you can also put thin

If you have used programme 1, 2 or 3 by the last wash, the
machine remembers it and you need only press the Start
pushbutton to get the same programme.
But if you use programme 4-6 , you must select it every
time. The reason for this is that we mean that programme
4-7 shall just be used at special occasions, when the dishes
are very slightly soiled.
How to use your
Model 1905
Your Model 1905 is a dishwasher which is particularly
convenient to use. It remembers the programme that
was last used (programme 1–3), so you need only
press the Start pushbutton to use it again.
The machine also shows when the rinse aid or salt has
run out or when you have not closed the door properly.
• Select the programme
•Press the
power switch As soon as you have pressed
the main switch, a lamp lights
above the last selected
programme ( programme 1–3).
Simply press the Start
pushbutton to use this
programme again.
To use a different programme,
press the pushbutton for the
programme required.
Which programme should I use?
The easiest way of using the machine is to select a standard
programme. Simply press one of the seven symbols for the
dishwashing programmes that you want, and the machine does
the rest. Or you can select the washing temperatures, number of
rinses, heated drying and so on yourself: read the details below
and follow the table.
1. Intensive wash
Use the Intensive wash programme for very dirty dishes, such as
pots, pans, casseroles and gratin forms mixed with normal
household wash-up.

2. Strong wash
Use the Strong wash programme for dirty dishes, such some pans,
mixed with normal household wash-up.
3. Normal wash
Use this programme for normal washing. It is made for plates, cups,
glasses and saucers and one or two not so dirty pans.
If the wash is not particularly heavily soiled, use the Light wash
programme. It is provided for china, which are very slightly dirty.
4. Light wash
Delicate items
Delicate items can be washed with the Light wash programme. Omit
heating if you want to be extra careful.
See also page 12: Wash these items with care.
If the wash is very little soiled, use the Quick wash programme. It is
provided for glasses and china, which are washed immediately after
being used and therefore don´t need a stronger programme.
5. Quick/Delicate wash
6. Rinse & Hold
For rinsing the dishes if you are waiting to wash-up until the
machine is full. If you select heated drying you get a rinse
programme.

•Press the Start button
The machine will start and work through
the selected programme automatically.
• Want to change your
mind?
• If you turn off the machine
at the main on/off switch
(or if there is a power failure) before
the programme has finished, the
programme will continue when
power is restored.
If the power is turned off during
drying, and the door is open for
more than two minutes, the
programme will be terminated.
How to save
energy:
Economy wash
If you press the E-button, the
temperature will be lowered to
50°C in the pre-wash and the
main wash. To compensate the
lower temperature, the main
wash time is pro-longed by 15
minutes. Detergents with
enzymes work better by longer
washing times at low temperatu-
res.
Wash only full loads
Save energy by not using the
machine until it is full.
Wash at lower temperatu-
res
You can lower the temperature
in main wash and rinse in the
Intensive, Strong and Normal
wash programmes to 55°C. In
the Light wash programme you
can lower it to 45°C.
Is the machine connected
to a cold water supply?
If the machine is connected to a
cold water supply, running time
will be longer, as the machine
must heat the water. However,
the longer washing time means
that you can run the programme
at a lower temperature and still
get the same wash performan-
ce. You also save electricity.
Long programmes with low
temperature is suitable for
detergents with emzyms.
Select unheated drying
If you select unheated drying,
the dishes will dry a little more
slowly. You can speed up
drying by opening the door a
little to allow the moist air to
escape. You can also select fan
drying.
If you want to change programme
after you have started the machine,
press Stop for 3 seconds. Then
select a new programme by pressing
the appropriate symbol.

The display window...
The displaywindow has four functions. It can show the temperature, the fault indication, the remaining
programme time and the re-programming.
...shows how much programme time remains
When a programme starts, the display shows the length of time it took when it was last run. As the
programme proceeds, the display counts down, showing the time remaining. Times can vary slightly
from one time to another, due tovariations in the incoming water temperature etc.
As the time proceeds, the time is counted down and the estimated time remaining is displayed . If the
time exceeds 60 minutes, the display alternates between the number of hours, followed by h, and the
number of minutes: e.g. 1h–25–1h–25, which says that 1 hour and 25 minutes remain of the
programme.

Wash these items with care:
Some items must not be machine-washed.
There are several reasons: some materials
cannot withstand the high temperature, while
others can be damaged by the detergent used.
China/porcelain marks
Modern china or porcelain may be marked
underneath with a code that indicates its
suitability for machine washing. This will be
in the form of VDN + a letter + three
figures. The last numeral indicates the
suitability:
5 = Withstands machine washing (75°C)
3 = Withstands hand washing (45°C)
1 = Risk of damage if washed
Delicate patterns
Porcelain or china having the pattern
above the glaze should not be
machine-washed. Check by running a
finger over the pattern: if it feels
rough, it is above the glaze.
Silver
Load glass items so that they do not knock
together while being washed. Use a low
temperature. Antique and very delicate
items should not be machine-washed.
Glass
Cutlery with bonded handles
Some types of adhesive cannot withstand
machine washing: cutlery handles are likely
to loosen.
Wooden items
Wooden items should be machine-washed
only if they are clearly stated as suitable for it.
Aluminium
Aluminium can be dulled by machine was-
hing. However, good quality aluminium
saucepans can be machine-washed,
although you must expect their shine
to be dulled.
Plastics
Certain plastics cannot withstand the high
temperature of machine washing.
To protect plastics:
–Select a programme at the lower
temperature, 55°C.
–Place the plastic items
in the upper basket.
*NOTE: After refilling, it may take
some time before the indicating
lamp goes out.
Silver and stainless steel items should not be
allowed to touch each other, as this can stain
the silver.
Topping up with rinse aid
Drying will be faster if you use a rinse aid.
The rinse aid indicating lamp on the panel
flashes if the machine is out of rinse aid.*
An indicator in the cap of the rinse aid
container shows whether it is empty. If the
indicator appears completely black, there is
sufficient rinse aid. If the size of the black
spot is reduced, the container requires
filling.
The first filling of rinse aid (Finish) is
included in the machine when it is delivered
from the factory.
Adjusting rinse aid metering
Rinse aid is metered automatically: the setting is adjusted before
the machine leaves the factory.
It may be necessary to alter the setting, to adjust the amount of
rinse aid metered, depending on the hardness of the water supply.
This can be done by opening the lid. Then you can see the
setting. This is normally set at 1. If the water in your area contains
lime (over 10–12 °dH), an acid rinse aid (containing citric acid)
should be used if the machine is not fitted with its own water
softener. The metering setting should be adjusted to 1–6,
depending on the hardness of the water.
Excessive use of the rinse aid can result in foam formation,
particularly when the machine is connected to a cold water supply.
If the water in your area is very soft, you can dilute the
concentrated rinse aid with an equal quantity of water.

Dishwashers with water softeners:
Salt
container
cover
The salt container in machines fitted with water softeners
must be prefilled with water then salt before the machine is
used for the first time. Use coarse salt or salt specially
intended for use in dishwasher water softeners.
The indicating lamp on the panel flashes if the machine is
out of salt. NOTE! After refilling with salt, it may take a
while before the indicating lamp goes out.
If the indication does not function, the float under the cover
may have got stuck in the salt residues. Push it upwards
and downwards to loosen it.
Unscrew the cover of the salt container, as shown in the
picture. Insert the funnel, supplied with the dishwasher, into
the top of the salt container and fill with salt. Wipe off any
spilled salt, so that the cover will seal properly, and replace
the cover.
Any salt spilled in the machine must be rinsed away
immediately. This can best be done by running a complete
programme. For this reason, it is recommended that salt be
filled into the machine just before using it to wash up.
Topping up with salt
Adjusting the salt dispenser
If the water in your area is very hard, it may be necessary to alter
the amount of salt required.
1. Press 5 times within 15 seconds. Then you get into
the changing programme. The last programmed water hardness
setting is showed by the lamps.
2. Press for a water hardness of 0–9°dH

replace the cover and the strainers.
Outlet pump
Care of the machine
The interior of the machine is manu-
factured from stainless steel, which is
kept clean through normal use. It may,
however, be necessary to clean the
strainers and spray arms at intervals.
Spray arm jets and bearings
Pieces of dirt can block the spray arm jets
or interfere with smooth running of the
spray arm bearings. Undo the nut and lift
off the washer on top of the spray arm so
that the arm can be lifted off. Use a brush
or suitable pointed object to get rid of any
dirt.
Food residues caught by the
fine strainer are flushed away
automatically each time the
machine is used.
Unscrew the fine strainer
sometimes and clean it with a
brush.
When replacing the strainer,
make sure that its edges seal
properly against the bottom of
the machine.
If the filter is dirty, it can be removed
and rinsed clean. It can be removed by
unscrewing the fine strainer and then
simply pulling it straight upwards.
Make sure that it clicks into position
properly when you put it back.
The coarse strainer catches
larger particles of food that
would otherwise clog the outlet
pump. Squeeze the lugs gently
toward each other, lift out the
strainer and clean it when
necessary. Replace it in the
reverse manner.
In the bottom the coarse strainer
has openings, which let peas
and macaronis out. Toothpicks,
however, will stay in the
strainer.

If the machine does not work
If the machine does not work, check to see whether there is some simple fault that you can rectify your-
self. Follow the instructions below. Aslo check page 11, Fault-tracing programme.
Problem Response
1. You have forgotten to press the main switch.
2. The door is not properly closed.
3. A fuse has blown.
4. The power supply plug is not inserted in its socket.
The machine will not start
Water remains in the machine
If the machine should overfill
with water, the outlet pump
will start automatically. If,
however, the water does not
pump out, the fault may be
due to one of these reasons:
1. Outlet hose kinked Check that the hose is not kinked or sharply bent.
2. The strainers are blocked. Clean the coarse and fine strainer and the filter.
3.Outlet hose blocked. Check that nothing has blocked the hole where the outlet hose is
connected to the sink drain trap. Particles of food can collect as shown in the drawing.
Check, too, that the conical connecting pipe is cut so that the internal diameter is as
large as possible, but at least 18 mm.
Poor dishwashing
performance Check the following points:
1.That the spray arms are not being prevented from turning by items sticking
down from the upper basket and that the holes in the spray arms are not
blocket by dirt.
2.That the spray arms can rotate freely, and are not being slowed by grit in the
bearings. Spin the arms by hand: if they do not spin freely, lift them off and
clean the bearings and mounts.
3.That the machine is admitting sufficient water. Check the inlet hose for kinks
or sharp bends. Check that the water pressure is sufficient: 0.03–1 MPa (4–
145 PSI).
4.That the correct quantity of detergent has been used: see page 5. Do not use
old or caked detergent. Keep the detergent dry and cool in a closed pack.
Remember that it should be bought and used fresh.
5.That the strainer is properly positioned and is clean (see page 10).
6. That you have chosen a enough strong programme.
Grey film on washed items A tendency for a grey film to develop on washed items may be due to lime from hard
water. The problem can often be alleviated by using an acidic rinse aid, i.e. one
containing citric acid (low pH value, as shown on the rinse aid label). If the dishwasher
incorporates a water softener, the grey film may indicate that there is no salt left in the
softener. Refill it with salt.

Engaged Disengaged
The machine incorporates a child safety catch, preventing small children from opening the
door and being scalded by hot water or steam. The catch also prevents children from getting
at the corrosive detergent.
Door switch The machine has a door switch which turns off the
power and stops the machine if the door should be
opened while the machine is in use. The programme
will continue when the door is closed.
Note: If the door is open for more than 2 minutes during drying, the programme will be
terminated. The machine also has a child safety catch to prevent the door being opened.
Overfill protectiom The machine incorporates an overfill protection device, which automatically starts the outlet
pump and closes the inlet valve if the water level in the machine should rise to a higher
level than normal. If the machine has overfilled, all lamps will be lit.
This protection operates only if the machine is switched on. It is therefore backed up by a
further, mechanical protective device in the bottom of the machine. The bottom of the
machine is made in the form of a tray, in which water from any leak will collect, lifting a float
which electrically turns off the inlet valve and the circulation pump. It also starts the outlet
pump.If this safety device has operated, turn off the water at the main supply tap and send
for service.
Anti-tip guard If the machine is installed completely free-standing, it must be fitted with an anti-tip guard.
In order to prevent children playing with the pushbuttons from starting the machine, you can
program it so that the start pushbutton must be pressed and held for 3 seconds for the
machine to start. See page 9.
