Summary: | The invention relates to a method for controlling a filling of a tub (20) of a washing machine (10) with water and a washing machine (10) that implements such method. The washing machine has a tub (20) tillable with water and hydraulically connected to at least two water inlets (30, 40) connectable to corresponding external water intakes (31, 41), a control valve (32, 42) in each water inlet for opening up and closing off the flow of water from the external water intakes to the tub, and a water level sensor (50) to detect a predetermined maximum water level in the tub. The method at the beginning of a wash cycle comprises the steps of opening the first control valve (32) to allow water to flow into the tub (20), measuring the water level in the tub, and if the maximum water level has been reached, continuing the wash cycle, or if the maximum water level has not been reached within a predetermined time, then opening the second control valve (42) to allow water to flow into the tub and implementing step b), nam |
