 Adjust thread tension (14)
Touch  +  to increase and - to decrease the needle 
thread tension.
For the best stitch appearance and durability make 
sure the needle thread tension is correctly adjusted, 
i.e. for general sewing, the threads evenly meet 
between the two fabric layers (A).
If the bobbin thread is visible on the top side of the 
fabric, the needle thread tension is too tight. Reduce 
the needle thread tension (B).
If the top thread is visible on the underside of the 
fabric, the needle thread tension is too loose (C). 
Increase the needle thread tension.
For decorative stitches and buttonholes the top 
thread should be visible on the underside of the 
fabric.
Thread tension compensation
If you À nd that the thread tension in general is too 
low or too high, touch Thread tension compensation 
in the Machine settings menu and adjust the settings 
in the window that appears, see page 3:11.
