Method for controlling washing machine

A method of controlling a washing machine comprising an outer tub containing water;

• an inner tub which accommodates laundry and is rotatably installed in the outer tub;
• a pulsator rotatably provided in a lower portion of the inner tub;
• a dispenser which supplies rinsing agent into the inner tub;
• a spray nozzle for spraying water into the inner tub;
• and a pump for draining the water contained in the outer tub, the method comprising the steps of:
• (a) washing the laundry by using the water supplied together with detergent;
• (b) draining the water used in the step (a), rotating the inner tub at a speed to perform the dewatering, and operating the pump to drain the water discharged from the laundry;
• (c) rotating the inner tub at a first speed and supplying the water into the inner tub via the dispenser;
• (d) stopping the supply of water through the dispenser, rotating the inner tub at a second speed, and supplying the water into the inner tub through the spray nozzle;
• (e) stopping the supply of water through the spray nozzle and alternately rotating the pulsator at a third speed in both directions;
• (f) stopping rotation of the pulsator, rotating the inner tub at the second speed, and supplying the water into the inner tub through the spray nozzle;
• (g) operating the pump to drain the outer tub;
• and
• (h) rotating the inner tub at the speed to perform the dewatering, and operating the pump to drain the water discharged from the laundry,
• wherein the supply of water through the spray nozzle in the step (f) continues after the rotation of the inner tub is stopped until the step (g) is performed and the supply of water through the spray nozzle is stopped after an initial period of draining operation of the pump in the step (g), and
• wherein, during the initial period of the step (g), the supply of water through the spray nozzle is performed while the pump operates to drain the outer tub.
