Abstract
A method of controlling a washing machine having a wobbling device. The wobbling device is switched to a leveling position to operate a spin-drying tub and a washboard and to a wobbling position to operate the washboard. The control method of the washing machine includes the steps of detecting the load of laundry, supplying water through a plurality of stages if the detected load of laundry is lighter than a predetermined reference load, and operating a pulsator in each of the stages through which water is supplied.
Claims14
A method of controlling a washing machine, comprising:
- detecting a load of laundry;
- determining a basic water supply level commensurate with said detected load;
- and
- supplying said basic water supply level through a plurality of stages, a corresponding apportionment of said basic water supply level being supplied during each respective ones of said plurality of stages.
A method of controlling a washing machine having a wobbling device, a spin-drying tub and a washboard, said wobbling device being configured to be switched to a leveling position to operate said spin-drying tub, and said wobbling device being configured to be switched to a wobbling position to operate said washboard, said method comprising:
- detecting a load of laundry;
- determining a basic water supply level commensurate with said detected load;
- and
- supplying said basic water supply level through a plurality of stages, a corresponding apportionment of said basic water supply level being supplied during each respective ones of said plurality of stages,
- wherein said wobbling device is switched to said wobbling position during least one of said plurality of stages.
