while sewing and your machine sews a few tie-off stitches and
stops automatically.
You can activate automatic FIX in settings, see Automatic
FIXautomatic FIX in the built-in user’s guide.
Needle Stop Up/Down
Touch needle stop up/down to set the position of the needle
when you stop sewing. The needle will move up or down
when you touch the button. The indicator light is on when
needle stop down is set.
Tip: You can also tap the foot control to raise or lower the needle once
you stop sewing. Tapping the foot control does not change the set stop
position.
Cut Function
Touch the cut function button and your machine cuts the
upper and bobbin threads, raises the presser foot and needle,
and activates the FIX function for the next start.
To cut threads at the end of a stitch or stitch program, touch
the cut function button while sewing. The indicator light will
flash, alerting you that a cut is requested. When the stitch or
stitch program is completed, your machine cuts the upper and
bobbin threads, raises the presser foot and needle, and
activates the FIX function for the next start.
Note: If automatic FIX and selective presser foot lift has been deselected
in temporary sewing settings, FIX function will not be activated and
presser foot will not be raised when using the cut function.
Touch the cut function button when embroidering and your
machine cuts the upper and bobbin threads instantly.
Some optional accessories are attached in the two small
circular holes in the needle plate just above the bobbin cover.
Do not use the cut function when an accessory is attached in
these holes as that may interfere with the automatic thread
cutter located under the needle plate.
STOP Function
Touch STOP when sewing to conclude a stitch or stitch
program. Your machine fixes the thread and stops
automatically when the stitch or stitch program has been
completed. Touch STOP before starting to sew and your
machine sews only one repetition of the stitch. Only one
stitch is displayed on the screen. The indicator next to the
STOP button is lit when the STOP function is active. To
cancel the function, touch STOP again or select a new stitch.
The STOP function is cancelled when the stitch is completed.
The STOP function is also used to repeat a sewn length when
sewing tapering, (see Tapering Stitches – Menu Qtapering
stitches in the built-in user’s guide) and when sewing manual
buttonholes.
Presser Foot Up and Extra Lift
Touch the presser foot up button once to raise the presser
foot. Touch again and the presser foot will raise to extra lift
position, and the feed teeth will be automatically lowered to
make it easier to get heavy fabric under the presser foot.
In embroidery mode, the extra lift makes it easier to insert or
remove the hoop.
Presser Foot Down and Pivot
The presser foot is lowered automatically when you start
sewing. To lower the presser foot before starting to sew,
touch the presser foot down and pivot button. The presser
foot will be completely lowered and the machine firmly holds
the fabric. Touch presser foot down again to go to pivot
position.
In embroidery mode touch presser foot down to lower the
presser foot to embroidery position.
Reverse
When reverse is active, the reverse indicator is lit. For
permanent reverse, touch the reverse button once before
starting to sew. The reverse indicator will be lit and the
machine sews in reverse until you touch the button again to
cancel. If you press the reverse button while sewing, the
machine will sew in reverse for as long as you keep the button
pressed.
Reverse is also used when sewing for example manual
buttonholes, darning stitches, theme stitches and tapering
stitches to step between the parts of the stitch.
