1-17. (canceled)
A laundry treating apparatus, comprising:
- a cabinet;
- a drum rotatably disposed in the cabinet and configured to receive laundry therein;
- a handle rotatably coupled to the cabinet and configured to receive an input of a command for selecting or changing (i) a course among one or more courses or (ii) an option among one or more options for rotating the drum;
- a display that is disposed inside the handle and is configured to display state information comprising a state of selection of (i) the course or (ii) the option;
- a selector configured to receive an input of a determination command for determining the state information and configured to modify the determination command based on the state information;
- and
- a setting unit that is disposed outside the handle and is configured to receive an input of a locking command for deactivating an input via the handle, wherein deactivating the input comprises disabling the input via the handle or invalidating the input received via the handle, and
- wherein an input of the selector is deactivated based on the input of the locking command being received by the setting unit.
