Abstract: A washing machine including a tub; a water supply valve configured to open or close a flow path to supply water to the tub; and a controller configured to (a) control the water supply valve to supply water to the tub to a target water level, (b) determine whether water pressure of the water supply valve is normal based on supplying the water to the tub to the target water level, (c) based on determining that the water pressure of the water supply valve is abnormal, update water pressure information that includes water pressure and water supply operation time of the water supply valve by adjusting the water supply operation time, and (d) set the updated water pressure information to be used for controlling the water supply valve in an operation course of the washing machine.

Abstract: A method of displaying washing information and a washing machine are provided. The washing machine includes a washing module, a water level sensor configured to detect a water level, a display, memory, and one or more processors communicatively coupled to the washing module, the water level sensor, the display, and the memory, wherein the memory store one or more computer programs including computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the washing machine to control, based on a user input for starting washing, the washing module to introduce water into the washing machine, determine, based on a water level frequency of the water level sensor, an amount of the water introduced into the washing machine, accumulate the determined amount of water as at least one cycle of the washing progresses, display, based on completion of the washing, on the display, the accumulated amount of water as water usage during the washing.
