While checking the screen for the distance
from the fabric edge to the edge sewing
position, move the fabric to the desired
position.
* The starting point of the fabric edge indicator line
shows the position for the start of sewing. The actual
position for the start of sewing is directly below the
needle and parallel to the starting point.

Note
• Distances between 1.5 mm (about 1/16
inch) and 38.5 mm (about 1-1/2 inches) can
be measured. The distance is displayed in
the screen in 0.5 mm (about 1/64 inch)
increments.
• The distance is displayed in millimeters.
However, depending on the measurement
setting, it can also be displayed in inches.
• If “-_- mm” appears as the distance and no
inch measurement is displayed, the built-in
camera is not able to detect the edge of the
fabric.
• When a straight stitch is selected, use the
scale on the edge sewing sheet as a guide
for positioning the fabric for edge sewing.

Memo
• If the knee lifter is used to lower the presser
foot, the fabric can be held in place with
both hands so the fabric does not move
when the presser foot is lowered.
