Abstract

A washing machine includes a timer as disclosed in Specifications 949,542 and 949,551. This timer has a cam bank movable in steps and defining separate intervals in which a washing function is performed, and also includes a continuously running switch, the "sub-interval" switch which performs a switching sequence during the separate intervals and thus as more fully described in Specification 949,551 when the whole time interval is not necessary for a particular operation it may be sub-divided. In particular the timer may be completely stopped until an operation is performed. One such operation is filling the tub. The present application is concerned with the provision and circuit arrangement of a level switch for this purpose. Specifications 949,545, 949,547 and 949,548 also are referred to.
