Abstract

Disclosed are a laundry machine and a control method thereof. The laundry machine includes a main selection part (32) to select one of a plurality of wash courses, each of which includes at least one of a wash cycle, a rinse cycle, a spin cycle, and a dry cycle, at least one sub-selection part (34, 35, 36, 37) to adjust cycle conditions in at least one cycle of the course selected through the main selection part (32), a plurality of light emitting parts to selectively illuminate the main selection part (32) and the at least one sub-selection part (34, 35, 36, 37), and a control unit to drive the laundry machine according to the selected course and cycle conditions and to control the plurality of light emitting parts such that the plurality of light emitting parts sequentially illuminate the main selection part and the at least one sub- selection part in manipulation order. The laundry machine allows a user to easily operate the laundry machine.
