Washing machine and steam washing method thereof

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of washing machines, and in particular relates to a washing machine and a steam washing method thereof. In order to make the washing machine not only satisfy the delicate washing needs of users, but also achieve the purpose of saving the cost and energy consumption of the washing machine, the steam washing method of the present invention includes the following steps: receiving the initial washing program of the washing machine; judging whether the steam washing instruction is received; if If the steam washing instruction is not received, perform the corresponding initial washing operation according to the initial washing procedure; if the steam washing instruction is received, configure at least one steam washing procedure based on the initial washing procedure; Perform the corresponding steam cleaning operation according to the steam cleaning program described above. The method of the present invention heats the minimum amount of water and generates steam every time, and then judges whether to perform secondary heating and generate steam according to the washing effect, so as to avoid large-scale heating when the clothes do not need a large amount of steam, so It can save electric energy to the greatest extent.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of washing machines, and particularly relates to a washing machine and a steam washing method thereof. Background technique
