Should I turn off the tap when using the automatic washing machine?

Turn it off. The water inlet of automatic washing machine is controlled by its own program. It is automatically controlled by the solenoid valve in the washing machine. That is to say, even if the faucet switch provided by the washing machine is turned on, water will not flow out if the solenoid valve switch on the washing machine is not turned on.

However, when the solenoid valve is closed, the water supply pipe connecting the faucet and the washing machine will be in a negative pressure state. Therefore, in order to avoid the burst of water pipes, it is recommended that you turn off the tap switch after using the washing machine.

Precautions for using automatic washing machine:

When using an automatic washing machine, you should set an appropriate amount of water according to the number of clothes, and don't set it too high, otherwise it will waste both water and electricity. Generally speaking, the amount of water put into the washing machine is suitable for the clothes just washed.

Although it is a fully automatic washing machine, if the second rinsing time is too long, it will waste electricity, so it is necessary to stop manually, rinse directly, dry, and then rinse for the third time. This will save some electricity.

When the washing machine is working, you can't open the top cover, otherwise the washing machine will whistle for warning and then stop working. If you want to see the inside of the washing machine, you can look through the lid. You can't open the lid until the washing machine stops running.
