For details on adjusting the upper thread tension,

refer to “Setting the Thread Tension” in the

stitching ( ) have been turned off.

top (wrong side) of the fabric.

Note

• Be sure to sew trial stitches using same fabric and

threads as project in order to check the sewing results.

• The bobbin thread may become tangled due to the

type of pattern and thread that are being used. Since

this may cause the needle to break, immediately

stop sewing if this occurs. Turn off the machine and

cut out the tangled thread with scissors. Then, clean

the race and bobbin case as described in “Preparing

the Bobbin Thread” on page 6.

Memo

• For best results, select a longer stitch length and a

wider stitch width. Depending on the selected stitch,

it may not be possible to change the stitch length

and stitch width settings.

• Depending on the fabric, bunched stitches may

result. We recommend selecting a simple stitch and

sewing trial stitches to check the sewing results.

Examples of simple stitches: , ,

Memo

We recommend a setting between 6 and 8 for the

upper thread tension.

CAUTION

• Before sewing, make sure the automatic thread

cutting has been turned off. If sewing is started with

automatic thread cutting turned on, the thread may

become tangled or the machine may be damaged.
