Safety instructions 4
Keep electrical equipment out of reach of children
Children are not aware of the dangers posed by electrical equipment.
Never allow children to use the sewing machine unsupervised. Remember that
needles can also cause injury even when the machine has been turned off.
Keep the packaging out of the reach of children. There is a risk of suffocation.
Mains cable and mains connection
•Only connect the appliance to a power socket (230 V ~ 50 Hz) that is easy to
reach and is close to the place where you have set up the appliance.
•The power socket must be freely accessible so that you can unplug the
appliance quickly, if necessary.
•When you unplug the appliance, always take hold of the plug itself, not the
cable.
Fully unwind the cable during operation of the appliance.
•The mains cable and extension cable must be positioned so that no one can
trip over them.
•Never expose the cable to hot surfaces.
•When you perform the following activities, switch off and unplug the sewing
machine: Threading, changing the needle, setting the sewing foot, replacing
the light bulb, cleaning and maintenance work, when you have finished
sewing, and if your work is interrupted.
Never undertake your own repairs
•If the plug, cable or appliance is damaged, pull the mains plug immediately.
•If the sewing machine or mains cable has visible damage, the appliance must
not be used, in order to avoid risks.
Warning
Never try to open and/or repair the appliance yourself. There is a
risk of electric shock! If there is a fault contact our Service Centre
or other suitable specialist workshop.

Handling the appliance safely
•Place the sewing machine on a sturdy, level work surface.
•During operation, the air vents must not be blocked: Do not allow any objects
(e.g. dust, threads, etc.) to enter the vents.
•Only use the accessories supplied.
•Only use special sewing machine oil to oil the appliance. Do not use any other
liquids.
•Be careful when using the moving parts of the machine, in particular the
needle. There is the risk of injury even when the machine has been turned off.
•When sewing, make sure that your fingers are never underneath the needle
holding screw.
•Do not use bent or blunt needles.
•When sewing, do not hold the fabric tight or pull the fabric. The needles could
break.
•When you have finished sewing, always move the needle to its highest
position.
Cleaning and storage
•Before cleaning, remove the plug from the mains socket. Use a dry, soft cloth
to clean the appliance. Avoid the use of chemical solutions and cleaning
products because these may damage the appliance surface or markings.
•Always store the sewing machine using the cover hood provided to protect
the machine from dust.

and unplug the machine.

goes.

the machine.

•Place the front flap and screw it tight.

The maximum permitted light bulb power rating in 15W. Light bulbs are available
from specialist retailers.
Extendable cloth plate
The machine has a free arm and is supplied
with an extendable cloth plate.
•Carefully pull the extendable cloth plate
to the left to disassemble it.
•To attach the cloth plate, carefully place
it to the projection guide in front and
back and push it to the right until it
catches.
Merits and application of free-arm cloth plate stitching
Sewing with free arm cloth plate avoids that
cloth piled up in front of needle while sewing
pockets, tucks and waist edges. Sew sleeves,
waist edges, trouser legs or other round-
shaped costumes. Sew darn knees, elbows
and children clothes.
