Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable a level of water to be accurately detected under the stable level of water by detecting a change amount of the level of water at any time during stirring and detecting the level of water in the point of time the change amount of the level of water decreases. CONSTITUTION:A water level change amount detecting means 4 detects a change amount of water level during stirring, and a switching unit 5c drives a supply water valve 8. During stirring of washing and rinsing, the water level change amount detecting means 4 detects the change amount of the water level at any time, in the point of time the change amount of the water level decreases, a water level detecting means 2 detects the water level, and a discriminating means 3 performs discrimination of the water level for whether or not it reaches the predetermined water level, when the decision is not more than the predetermined water level, water is supplied to the predetermined water level by actuating the supply water valve 8.
