Problems solved by technology

[0006] Meanwhile, the prior art washing machine has a problem in that it is difficult to accurately measure the amount of residual detergent before starting the rinsing course after performing the washing course, thereby making it difficult to provide optimal rinsing suitable for the amount of residual detergent. process
However, even if the amount of residual detergent is measured and an optimal rinse course suitable for the residual amount is provided, there is a problem that the user cannot notice that safe rinsing is being provided.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for controlling a washing machine, in which functioning of a safe rinsing is shown to a user visibly for improving user's reliability. The method, having a detergent amount calculating step for calculating a remained detergent amount at the time of finishing a washing course or a starting of a rinsing course by means of a conductivity sensor, and a determining step for determining whether an additional rinsing is performed or not according to the remained detergent amount calculated thus, the method includes a user informing step for informing a change of the rinsing pattern to the user if the rinsing pattern which is a parameter that gives influence to the rinsing course with reference to the remained detergent amount calculated in the detergent amount calculating step.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority from Korean Patent Application No. 10-2008-0103402 filed on October 22, 2008, which is hereby incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein. technical field [0003] The invention relates to a method for controlling a washing machine. Background technique [0004] Generally speaking, washing machines process clothes through a cycle of washing-rinsing-spinning and sometimes drying after spinning. Before performing a washing course, the amount of laundry, such as clothes, introduced into the drum is first measured. According to the amount of laundry thus measured, the amount of washing water, the amount of detergent, the total washing time, etc. (these items are defined as washing parameters) are automatically set. After the user sets the washing parameters, the washing course is performed accordingly. [0005] When the washing course is completed, the contaminated washing wat...
