length. Minimum and maximum settings
are indicated with a “beep” signal.

as the stitch length. The set width is
visible on the GraphicDisplay above
the stitch width button. The width can
be adjusted between 0 and 6 mm. If

button is used to adjust the needle posi-

width. Minimum and maximum settings
are indicated with a “beep” signal.

prompting you to set the twin needle
width. Select the width by touching the
selection buttons. A twin needle icon is
shown in the upper left corner of the
GraphicDisplay. Touch the button again
