Abstract: The present invention relates to laundering machine and method. The laundering machine includes a tub for holding washing water, a drum rotatably mounted in the tub, a driving unit for rotating the drum, and a control unit for carrying out a washing process such that a washing course (S240) is started at a starting time of scheduled operation and a standby time period is provided before a spinning course (S260). The laundering method includes a washing step for performing a washing course (S240), a rinsing step for performing a rinsing course (S250), a spinning standby step for standing by a predetermined time period at user's option after the rinsing step, and a spinning step for progressing spinning after the spinning standby step.

Abstract: Disclosed is a drum type washing machine having a touch up function and a method for touching up thereof. The drum type washing machine having the touch up function is provided with a touch up button for removing wrinkles on laundry left in the drum type washing machine and a method for touching up. Accordingly, it is not required for a user to additionally execute rinsing and dehydrating processes, or ironing so as to remove wrinkles on the laundry, thus it is convenient. And, since it is not required to additionally execute the rinsing and dehydrating processes, it is capable of preventing unwanted consumption of water and electricity.
