To use the sewing machine safely
Marks and pictographs included in the Instruction Manual and shown on the sewing machine are
used so as to ensure safe operation of the sewing machine and to prevent possible risk of injury
to the user and other people.
Warning marks are used for di󰀨erent purposes as described below.
WARNING Indicates that there is a possible risk of death or serious injury if this
mark is ignored and the sewing machine is used in a wrong manner.
ATTENTION
Indicates the operation, etc. which can cause a possible risk of person-
al injury and/or physical damage if this mark is ignored and the sewing
machine is used in a wrong manner.
Pictographs mean the following:

3
● Do not wipe the sewing machine with solvent such
as thinner.
When the sewing machine
is soiled, put a small quan-
tity of neutral detergent on
a piece of soft cloth and
carefully wipe o󰀨 the sew-
ing machine with it.
● Be sure to use the sewing machine
in the temperature range from 5ºC
to 40ºC.
If the temperature is excessively
low, the machine can fail to operate
normally.
WARNING
For the combination of the material and the thread and needle, in particular, refer to the explana-
tion table in “Replacement of the needle”.
If the needle or thread does not match the material used such as in the case that an extra heavy-
weight material (e.g., denim) is sewn with a thin needle (#11 or higher), the needle can break
resulting in an unexpected personal injury.
Other precautions
● Do not put the sewing machine
under the direct sunlight or in a
humid place.
Be aware that the following state can take place since the sewing machine incorporates
semi-conductor electronic parts and precise electronic circuits.
* The operating temperature of the sewing machine is between 5ºC and 40ºC. Do not use the
sewing machine under the direct sunlight, near the burning things such as a stove and candle,
or in a humid place. By so doing, the temperature in the interior portion of the sewing machine
can rise or the coating of the power cord can melt, causing re or electrical shock.
● The safety device of the sewing machine will work
to stop the sewing machine in order to prevent the
generation of abnormal heat in the case the sew-
ing machine is continuously engaged in sewing at
a low sewing speed for a long time or it is continu-
ously engaged in sewing for a long time under the
high temperature environment. In this event, Start
and Stop button will not light.
The sewing machine will
return to working condition
after about 10 minutes.
Stop!
