Method for monitoring the position of a drum door of a top-loading washing and/or drying laundry machine

摘要

The method involves rotationally driving a rotary drum (7) at rotational speed that is lower than or equal to a predetermined threshold. A distance between a leaf (10b) of an access door (9) of the drum and a reference point (R) of a top loaded washing and drying machine (1) is detected. A functioning cycle of the machine is started or stopped according to a detection result. An independent claim is also included for a top loaded washing and/or drying machine.
