9.11 Sewing a buttonhole automatically with the Buttonhole foot with
slide No. 3A
NOTICE!It depends on the markets, whether or not the Buttonhole foot with slide No. 3A is
included in the delivery contens. When the Buttonhole foot with slide No. 3A is not included in the
standard accessory, it can be purchased as optional accessory at the specialized BERNINA retailers.
When the Buttonhole foot with slide No. 3A is used, the length of the buttonhole is measured automatically
by the lens on the presser foot. The buttonhole will be exactly duplicated and the machine switches to the
next step automatically when the maximum length is reached. The Buttonhole foot with slide No. 3A is
suitable for buttonholes at a length of 4 – 31 mm, depending on the buttonhole type. The slide of the
Buttonhole foot must lie perfectly flat on the fabric so that the length can be measured accurately.
Programmed buttonholes are the same length and of the same nice look.
Prerequisite:
• The Buttonhole foot with slide No. 3A is attached.
> Touch the icon «Buttonholes».
> Select buttonhole No. 51–54, No. 56, 59 or 63.
> Sew the desired buttonhole length.
> Push the button «Quick Reverse» to program the length.
