After the selected working parameter icon is confirmed, the corresponding working parameter value can be adjusted within a set range by rotating the encoder 2.
The lighting modes of the indicator lamp 5 include clockwise lighting, counterclockwise lighting, clockwise and counterclockwise alternate lighting, full extinguishing, and flashing, and different lighting modes correspond to different operation prompts, for example, clockwise lighting, counterclockwise lighting, and clockwise and counterclockwise alternate lighting prompt the user to rotate the encoder 2, so as to switch between the icons to select or adjust the operating parameter value of a certain program. When the rotary encoder 2 adjusts the operating parameters:
when the working parameter is adjusted to the maximum value of the set range, the indicator lamp is lightened in a counterclockwise mode to prompt a user that the encoder 2 can only be rotated counterclockwise so as to reduce the current working parameter value;
when the working parameter is adjusted to the minimum value of the set range, the indicator lamp is lightened in a clockwise mode to prompt a user that the encoder 2 can only be rotated clockwise so as to increase the current working parameter value;
when the working parameter is adjusted to be between the maximum value and the minimum value of the set range, the indicator lamp is lightened in an anticlockwise and clockwise alternating mode, and the user is prompted that the encoder 2 can rotate clockwise or anticlockwise.
When the indicator lights 5 are fully illuminated, the user is prompted to press the encoder 2 to confirm the selected icon.

At this time, the indicator lamps 5 on the periphery of the encoder 2 are alternately turned on clockwise and counterclockwise, so that the user is prompted to select a required washing mode by rotating the encoder 2.
After the required washing mode is selected, the washing mode is the linen washing mode in this embodiment, the encoder 2 is pressed, as shown in fig. 2, the display screen 1 enters a submenu of the linen washing mode, the washing mode name and the total washing time in the washing mode are arranged above the submenu, the working parameter icon and the default value are arranged below the submenu, and the working parameters are the washing time, the rinsing time, the water temperature and the rotating speed respectively. At this time, the indicator lights 5 are all lighted to prompt the user to press the encoder 2 to select the working parameters. After the encoder 2 is pressed, the default selection is the water temperature, at the moment, the indication lamp 5 is alternately lightened clockwise and anticlockwise, and a user is prompted to switch the working parameters to be adjusted by rotating the encoder 2. After the working parameter to be adjusted is selected, as shown in fig. 3, the rotating speed in this embodiment is determined by pressing the encoder 2, the lighting manner of the indicator lamp 5 is changed to be alternately lighting clockwise and counterclockwise, and at this time, the current working parameter value can be adjusted by rotating the encoder 2. During adjustment, as shown in fig. 4, a circle of parameter range indication bars 6 appears on the periphery of the rotation speed icon for indicating the proportional relationship between the current rotation speed value and the maximum allowable rotation speed value.
