Note
• Slide the outside frame of the buttonhole foot
backward as far as possible as shown in the
illustration, making sure that there is no gap
behind the part of the foot marked “A+”. If the
buttonhole foot is not slid back as far as
possible, the buttonhole will not be sewn at
the correct size.

• When using the thread cutter on the left side
of the machine or scissors to cut the threads,
press the “Needle Position” button to raise
the needle, raise the presser foot, and then
pull out the fabric before cutting the threads.

CAUTION
• When using the seam ripper to open the
buttonhole, do not put your hand or finger in
the path of the ripper. The ripper may slip and
cause injury.
Memo
• For keyhole buttonholes, use the eyelet punch
to make a hole in the rounded end of the
buttonhole. Then insert a pin along the inside
of one of the bar tacks, insert a seam ripper
into the hole made with the eyelet punch, and
cut towards the pin.
