  • Publication number: 20210332520
    Abstract: A washing machine has a remote control function, and the control method comprises: after a washing procedure is finished, judging whether a remote control function is in an open state. If the judgment is yes, controlling a lock to keep a locked state, and executing a standby process for a time duration of t1, and if the judgment is no, controlling the lock to open, and executing a standby process for a time duration of t2, wherein t1?t2; preferably, t1>t2. After a washing procedure is finished, the waiting time of a washing machine when the remote control function is in an open state is longer than the waiting time of a washing machine when the remote control function is in a closed state, thereby effectively preventing a remote controller from missing further control of a washing machine in a standby process.
