     pattern keys, the thread tensions will be auto-
     matically set.
     Settings such as the stitch length and differen-
     tial feed ratio will be indicated on the visual
     display screen as well.
     Now simply begin sewing.
The following three pages show all the machine
     settings related to each stitch type.
Choose the Needle and Thread
  The choice of needle and the thread depends on the
  fabric you are sewing.In your needle case, you will find
 the following needles:
 #11 Needle....for lightweight fabrics.
 #14 Needle....for medium or medium -heavy weight
                          fabrics.
Note: These needles are found in the accessory box (see page 4).
Check the Needle
1. Look for barbed or blunt point.
2. A damaged needle can cause permanent
    snags or runs in knits, fine and silk-like fabrics.
 Always buy a good quality thread. It should
    resist tangling and be strong, smooth and
    consistent in thickness.
