Abstract

The invention relates to a method of controlling a washing machine. The washing machine has a drum provided rotatably in a tub for containing water, wherein an introduction hole through which laundryis to be introduced is formed in a front of the drum. The method comprises: a step (a) of washing the laundry introduced into the drum by adding water mixed with detergent; a step (b) of rotating thedrum at a spin dry speed, where the laundry is able to rotate along with the drum while adhered to the drum, and draining a tub while the drum is rotated at the spin-dry speed; and a step (c) of decelerating the drum from the spin-dry speed to a laundry adherence speed, wherein the step (c) comprises a step (c1) of providing a water supply to the drum, a step (c2) of draining the tub, and a step (c3) of providing a further water supply to the drum, wherein the laundry adherence speed is set within a range where, despite the water supplies provided in the step (c1) and the step (c3), the laundry is able to rotate along with the drum while adhered to the drum .

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for controlling a washing machine in which the tub rotates about a horizontal axis. Background technique [0002] A washing machine having a nozzle for spraying water supplied from an external water source into a drum and performing a rinsing cycle or a spin-drying cycle using the nozzle is a known type of washing machine. As an example of such a washing machine, Korean Patent Application Publication No. 10-2014-0037084 (hereinafter referred to as the related art) discloses a washing machine including a circulation nozzle for spraying circulating water and a Direct water nozzles for water supplied by the water source. [0003] The related art discloses a rinse cycle for rinsing laundry using a circulation nozzle and a direct water nozzle. In particular, the related art discloses a (turbo rinse) cycle of rinsing laundry by rotating a drum at a speed of 1G or more, in which the laundry is rotated while being attached t...
