Buttonhole programs
Use the buttonhole foot no. 5A and the sensormatic buttonhole guide
no. 10 to sew perfect buttonholes on all kinds of fabric. See page 4:7
for instructions on changing to the buttonhole foot and inserting the
sensormatic buttonhole guide.
Buttonholes can be sewn in three different ways:

Touch the pattern length icon and set the size of the buttonhole slit
with the function field buttons (5). The buttonhole will be sewn

automatically saved and can be repeated as many times as you
wish. To program a different buttonhole length, without leaving the
menu, you must first touch the ”prog” icon to remove the mark and
then sew the new buttonhole. Touch the ”prog” icon once more to
deactivate and be able to choose other functions.

column will be sewn in the length you enter on the screen. The
reverse buttonhole column will be finished after you have pressed
