Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a laundry treatment machine and a method for controlling the same. A pump motor may operate according to the steps of starting up the pump motor when operating or stopping the pump motor. Upon restarting, the pump motor may be controlled to start up after being on standby until the rotor stops, and therefore the pump may run normally even in case in which the pump repeatedly stops and runs, and the drainage performance may be improved and wash water may be drained by the operation of the pump regardless of the lift level.
