During the spin process, if washing are piled at one side of the spin barrel, it
will cause unbalance of spin barrel resulting in striking. At this moment, the
controller will feel this unbalance and will automatically correct it (fill in water).
However, if unbalance situation is not removed after continuous three
corrections, which means the computer auto-correction can not resolve the
problem. Then the user has to manually and evenly place the clothing inside
the barrel to solve the problem.
