(2) cet appareil doit accepter toute interférence reçue, y compris 

les interférences pouvant provoquer un fonctionnement 

indésirable.

Veuillez noter : n’utilisez pas votre machine à quilter AQ SD-

CONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ 

IMPORTANTES

Lisez toutes les consignes avant d’utiliser la machine. Lorsque 

vous utilisez cette machine, vous devez toujours prendre des 

précautions de sécurité de base, notamment ce qui suit :

DANGER — Pour réduire le risque de choc électrique : Une 

machine à quilter ne doit jamais être laissée sans surveillance 

lorsqu’elle est branchée. Débranchez toujours la machine de 

la prise électrique immédiatement après usage et avant de la 

nettoyer.

AVERTISSEMENT — Pour réduire le risque de brûlures, 

d’incendie, de choc électrique ou de blessures :

• La AQ SD-16 est très lourde. Ne jamais tenter de la soulever 

seul. Utilisez toujours deux personnes pour la soulever. Soulevez 

toujours la machine à partir de la gorge, non pas à partir des 

poignées.

• Débranchez toujours la AQ SD-16 de la prise électrique lors des 

travaux d’entretien, du changement d’aiguille, de la suppression 

des blocages de fil, ou lorsqu’elle est laissée sans surveillance.

• Ne pas débrancher en tirant sur le cordon. Pour débrancher, 

saisir la fiche, non le cordon.

• N’approchez pas les doigts des parties mobiles. Faites preuve 

de prudence lorsque vous vous approchez de l’aiguille ou de 

composants externes tranchants.

• Changez souvent d’aiguille. N’utilisez pas d’aiguilles tordues ou 

émoussées. « Chaque quilt mérite une nouvelle aiguille ».

• Mettez la machine sur la position 0 ou de symbole d’arrêt pour 

l’éteindre lorsque vous effectuez des réglages dans la zone de 

l’aiguille : enfilage de l’aiguille, changement d’aiguille, bobinage 

de la canette, changement de pied, etc.

• Ne faites jamais tomber et n’insérez jamais d’objets étrangers 

dans une ouverture.

• La AQ SD-16 doit être utilisée uniquement à l’intérieur dans un 

endroit non humide.

• La AQ SD-16 ne doit pas être rangée ou utilisée à des 

températures extrêmes.

• Utilisez la AQ SD-16 uniquement pour son usage prévu indiqué 

dans ce manuel.

• Pour débrancher la machine de la prise murale, mettez 

l’interrupteur sur arrêt, puis retirez la fiche de la prise en tirant 

à partir de la fiche et non du cordon. N’utilisez jamais la AQ 

SD-16 si le cordon est endommagé ou ne fonctionne pv as 

correctement. En cas de problème mécanique ou électrique, 

renvoyez la AQ SD-16 au centre de service agréé le plus 

proche ou au fabricant pour inspection, réparation, ou réglage 

électrique ou mécanique.

• Il est déconseillé d’utiliser la machine à quilting AQ SD-16 avec 

un cadre de machine à quilter autre que ceux recommandés par 

Artistic.

• Utilisez cette machine à quilter uniquement pour l’usage prévu 

décrit dans ce manuel. Utilisez uniquement les accessoires 

recommandés par le fabricant décrits dans ce manuel.

• Ne jamais utiliser la machine si des ouvertures d’air sont 

bloquées. Gardez les ouvertures de ventilation de la machine 

exemptes d’accumulation de peluches, poussières et morceaux 

de tissu.

• Ne pas utiliser là où des aérosols (vaporisateurs) sont utilisés 

ou de l’oxygène est administré.

• Ne pas tirer ni pousser trop fort la machine sur le tissu lors de 

l’exécution des points. Cela pourrait provoquer une déviation de 

l’aiguille et en entraîner la fracture.

• N’utilisez que les aiguilles conçues pour le quilting en piqué 

libre et recommandées par Artistic pour cette machine. D’autres 

types d’aiguilles risqueraient de se fracturer au cours d’un 

quilting normal. 

• Ne pas laisser les enfants jouer avec la machine. Une attention 

particulière est nécessaire lorsque cette machine est utilisée par 

ou à proximité d’enfants.

• Cette machine peut être utilisée par des enfants de 8 ans 

et plus, ainsi que par des personnes atteintes d’un déficit 

physique, sensoriel ou mental, peu expérimentées ou ayant 

peu de connaissances, à condition que ces personnes reçoivent 

les instructions de sécurité et la supervision nécessaires à 

l’utilisation de la machine et qu’elles comprennent les risques 

encourus.

• Les travaux de maintenance et de nettoyage ne peuvent pas 

être effectués par des enfants sans supervision.
