Note
When the “Automatic Threading” button is

combination, the hook may sometimes get
caught in the needle. If this happens, remove
the hook from the needle as described below.
CAUTION
• The needle thread carrier will automatically
thread the needle when the “Automatic
Threading” button is pressed. Be sure to keep
your hands and other items away from the
needle area, otherwise injuries may occur.
CAUTION
• Before manually threading the machine, be
sure to press in the LCD, otherwise
injuries may occur if the “Start/Stop” button
or any other button is pressed and the
machine starts sewing.
Memo
If the line on the machine is not aligned with
the line on the handwheel, the sewing
machine cannot be threaded. Check that the
line on the handwheel is facing up as shown in
