Abstract

Disclosed is a method for controlling a drum-type washing machine including the steps of switching on a water supply valve to supply wash water into a tub, switching on a circulation pump to circulate the wash water in the tub into a drum, switching off the water supply valve when a first predetermined time(T1) from the switching-on of the water supply valve elapses, and switching off the circulation pump when a second predetermined time (T2) from the switching-off of the water supply valve elapses. The method allows laundry to be effectively cleaned using a small quantity of the wash water(W) and minimizes a power consumption rate required to operate the washing machine through several repetitions of the above steps.
