Setting the Thread Tension
Your machine will automatically set the thread tension when you select a stitch. However, you
may need to change the thread tension, depending on the fabric and thread being used.
Proper Thread Tension
The upper and lower threads should cross near the center
of the fabric. If thread tension is not properly set, the seam
may have a poor finish or the fabric may pucker.
1 Reverse side
2 Surface
3 Upper thread
4 Bobbin thread
If the upper thread tension is too strong (the bobbin thread
can be seen on the top side of the fabric), press the
key.
1 Bobbin thread
2 Upper thread
3 Surface
4 Locks appear on surface of fabric
If the upper thread tension is too weak (the upper thread
can be seen on the bottom side of the fabric), press the
key.

Note
If you change the thread tension setting, but turn off the
power or select another stitch afterwards, the thread ten-
sion will return to the default setting.
