1. A control method for an air-conditioner indoor unit,
wherein the air-conditioner indoor unit comprises a housing, a drain pan, an air deflector, at least one movable cover plate, and at least one sweeping strip, the housing having an air outlet, the air deflector being rotatably arranged at the air outlet, the air deflector being provided with micro holes, the at least one movable cover plate being movably arranged at a front side of the housing to open or close the air outlet, the at least one sweeping strip being attached to the at least one movable cover plate and configured to sweep condensate water on a surface of the air deflector, the drain pan being arranged at a bottom of the air outlet and configured to receive the condensate water swept from the air deflector, and an orthographic projection of the air deflector on the drain pan being located in the drain pan in a windless feeling mode in which an airflow concentrated in the air outlet is evacuated into finer air currents through the micro holes of the air deflector, and
wherein the control method comprises:
starting the windless feeling mode by the air-conditioner indoor unit;
receiving an instruction of ending the windless feeling mode,
in response to receiving the instruction of ending the windless feeling mode, controlling the at least one movable cover plate to move back and forth to switch between closing the air outlet and opening the air outlet for n times, so as to drive the at least one sweeping strip to move to sweep the condensate water on the surface of the air deflector, wherein n>0; and
ending the windless feeling mode after controlling the at least one movable cover plate to move back and forth for n times.
