WASHING MACHINE

摘要

The following are provided in a washing machine: a drum (630) in which laundry is put; an ion elution unit that elutes metal ions and adds them to water; sensing means (701) for sensing imbalance at the time of rotation of the laundry tub; and imbalance correcting means (702). When the sensing means (701) senses imbalance in the drum (630) at the time of spin-drying rotation of the drum (630) performed after metal ion added water supplied from the ion elution unit to the drum (630) is supplied, the imbalance correcting means (702) corrects the imbalance by performing a processing different from a processing performed when imbalance is sensed in a case where the metal ion added water is not supplied. The different processing is not supply of tap water but balance correction rinsing in which the metal ion added water is supplied to the drum (630) and agitation is performed. With this structure, imbalance in the drum (630) at the time of spin-drying rotation can be corrected without any loss of the antibacterial effect added to the laundry.
