Abstract
In a control method of a washing machine, a washing operation is performed through a heating washing process for a first set time and is performed through a non-heating washing process for a residual time, and, if the heating washing process is started, the rotation of a driving motor is weakly controlled until a washing water temperature reaches a primary target temperature, and is strongly controlled until the washing water temperature reaches a secondary target temperature after the washing water temperature reaches the primary target temperature, so that the washing water temperature is relatively gradually increased.
