Preparations
  Buttons and indicators
  Reverse button (A)
For permanent reverse, press the button once before 
starting to sew. The reverse indicator (B) will be lit 
and the machine sews in reverse until you press 
the button again to cancel. If you press the reverse 
button while sewing, the machine sews in reverse 
for as long as you keep the button pressed. The 
reverse indicator is lit when the reverse button is 
pressed.
Reverse is also used when sewing buttonholes, 
programmed tie-off end, darning stitches and 
tapering stitches to step between the parts of the 
stitch. 
 Reverse indicator (B)
The reverse indicator will be lit when pressing the 
reverse button to sew in reverse. It is also lit while 
sewing permanent reverse.
 Action indicator (C)
The action indicator is lit to indicate that an action 
is to be done, for example performing tapering. The 
icon stays lit until the action is done.
  Presser foot up and extra lift toggle (D)
Raises the presser foot and needle to the up 
position. 
Press the button once more and the presser foot will 
raise to extra lift. The feed dogs will be lowered to 
make it easier to get thick fabric under the presser 
foot.
  Presser foot down and pivot toggle (E)
Lower the presser foot completely. Press the button 
once more to raise the presser foot to pivot height. 
The presser foot is lowered automatically when you 
start sewing.
  Start/stop (F)
Press this button to start or stop the machine 
without using the foot control. Press the button once 
to start and press it again to stop.
  Thread snips (G)
Press to cut both needle and bobbin thread 
immediately.
If pressing this button while sewing, the threads 
will be cut before the needle moves to the start 
position of the next stitch. Your machine ties off 
the thread, cuts the needle and bobbin threads and 
raises the presser foot and the needle.
The thread snips function can be programmed, see 
chapter 4. 
Note: Threads are cut automatically when buttonholes 
are sewn with the Sensormatic buttonhole foot.
The presser foot will not raise after thread snips if 
Automatic presser foot lift has been deactivated in the 
Settings menu.
Thread snips performed by the machine can be cancelled 
in the Settings menu.
In embroidery mode the threads are cut and the presser 
foot raised. The upper thread is only cut automatically at 
the color change. When the design is À nished both needle 
and bobbin threads are cut automatically.
