Stirring is performed by rotating the motor 1o left and right. The magnitude of the load caused by stirring is detected by the current transformer 11 as the magnitude of the current flowing through the motor 1o. The electric signal from the current transformer 11 is converted into digital data by A/D conversion 12, and is inputted to the microcomputer 13 from the input terminal B, where the amount of cloth is determined.

が行なわれる。As a result of determining the amount of cloth, if it is determined that the current water level is appropriate, that's it! ! Well, the stirring can continue. Furthermore, when it is determined that a higher water level than the current water level is required, a NO\IREHERNO signal is output from the output terminal H of the microcomputer 13, the transistor 26 is driven, and the high water level light emitting diode 23 is activated.
lights up. Next, water is supplied from the output terminal E, and water is supplied again, and when the medium water level is reached, the water is output from the output terminal G, and the light emitting diode for the medium water level lights up. When the water level reaches a high level, the water supply is stopped and washing is carried out at the optimum water level for the current amount of cloth.
