Taking care of the machine
Trouble shooting
Any time you experience a problem when
sewing:
Select correct type and weight of fabric in the Sewing
Advisor.
Insert needle size and type as recommended on the
GraphicDisplay.
Rethread the top and bobbin threads.
Use different spool pin positions (vertical or horizontal).
Use thread nets and quality thread. We recommend the same
sewing thread on top and bobbin for general sewing. For
decorative sewing we recommend embroidery thread on top
and bobbin thread on bobbin.
If you experience problems when sewing the
Sensor Buttonhole:
Make sure the white area on the side of the wheel is lined up
with the white marking line on the foot.
Check to insure that the cord to the Sensor Buttonhole Foot
is properly plugged into the socket above the needle area
behind the light bulb.
Fabric Puckers?
Select correct type and weight of fabric in the Sewing
Advisor.
Check needle, it could be damaged.
Insert needle size and type as recommended on the
GraphicDisplay.
Rethread top and bobbin threads.
Change thread type to match fabric and sewing technique.
Use quality thread.
Shorten stitch length.
• Use stabilizer.
Check your thread tension.
Skipped Stitches?

Change needle to recommended size and type.
Be sure the needle is inserted correctly all the way into the
clamp.

threading. When using embroidery thread on top, you should
use bobbin thread in the bobbin, not regular sewing thread.
