When using an electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
1.
Carefully watch the needle when stitching. Do not touch the handwheel, take-up lever, needle, or other
moving parts while the machine is running.
2.
Turn the machine off and unplug the cord in the following cases:
• when you have finished using the machine
• when you replace or remove the needle or any other part
• when you check or clean the machine
• when you leave the machine unattended
3.
Do not use extension cords. Connect the machine directly to the wall outlet or to a surge protector or
UPS (Uninterrupted Power Source) that connects directly to the wall outlet.
To increase the life of your machine
1.

machine near a heater, an iron, a halogen lamp or other hot items.
