● Do not put the sewing machine under the direct
sunlight or in a humid place.
● 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.
* 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.
● Do not wipe the sewing machine with solvent such as
thinner.
● This sewing machine will stop due to safety mechanism
to prevent the machine from overheating, when it sews
slowly and for a long time.
When the sewing
machine is soiled, put a
small quantity of neutral
detergent on a piece of
soft cloth and carefully
wipe off the sewing
machine with it.
At this time, turn off the
power switch, after a while
please be ON the power
switch.
Be aware that the following state can take place since the sewing machine incorporates semi-conductor electronic parts
and precise electronic circuits.
Stop!
WARNING
For the combination of the material and the thread and needle, in particular, refer to the explanation 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.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This product must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance
for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded
in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER - Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.
The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding
conductor. If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to
a live terminal.
Check with a qualied electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt
as to whether the product is properly grounded.
Do not modify the plug provided with the product. if it will not t the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualied
electrician.
