following:

Read all instructions before using this household sewing machine.

DANGER – To reduce the risk of electric shock:

• A sewing machine should never be left unattended when plugged in. Always unplug this sewing

machine from the electric outlet immediately after using and before cleaning.

WARNING – To reduce the risk of burns, À re, electric

shock, or injury to person:

• This sewing machine is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical,

sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given

supervision or instruction concerning use of the sewing machine by a person responsible for their

safety.

• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the sewing machine.

• Use this sewing machine only for its intended use as described in this manual. Use only attachments

• Never operate this sewing machine if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly, if

it has been dropped or damaged, or dropped into water. Return the sewing machine to the nearest

authorized dealer or service center for examination, repair, electrical or mechanical adjustment.

• Never operate the sewing machine with any air openings blocked. Keep ventilation openings of the

sewing machine and foot controller free from the accumulation of lint, dust, and loose cloth.

• Keep À ngers away from all moving parts. Special care is required around the sewing machine needle.

• Always use the proper stitch plate. The wrong plate can cause the needle to break.

• Hold plug when rewinding into cord reel. Do not allow plug to whip when rewinding.

• This sewing machine is provided with double insulation. Use only identical replacement parts. See

instructions for Servicing of Double-Insulated Appliances.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

SERVICING OF DOUBLE INSULATED PRODUCTS

In a double-insulated product, two systems of insulation are provided instead of grounding. No ground

means is provided on a double-insulated product, nor should a means for grounding be added to the

product. Servicing of a double-insulated product requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and

should be done only by qualiÀ ed service personnel. Replacement parts for a double-insulated product must

be identical to those parts in the product. A double-insulated product is marked with the words ‘DOUBLE

INSULATION’ or ‘DOUBLE INSULATED’.

Some fabrics have a lot of excess dye which can cause

discoloration on other fabric but also on your sewing

machine. This discoloring may be very difÀ cult or

impossible to remove.

Fleece and denim fabric, especially red and blue, often

contain a lot of excess dye.

If you suspect that your fabric/ready-to-wear garment

contains a lot of excess dye, always pre-wash it before

sewing to avoid the discoloring.
