should always be followed. Please read through this user manual
thoroughly before using your sewing computer and keep these
instructions for your reference.
DANGER – To reduce the risk of electrical shock:
1. The sewing computer should never be left unattended when
plugged in.
2. Always unplug this appliance from the electric outlet imme-
diately after using and before cleaning.
WARNING – To prevent burns, fire, electric shock or personal
injury:
1. Electrical appliances are no children's toys. Children must be
supervised to prevent them from playing with the sewing
computer. Increased caution is called for if the sewing com-
puter is used by children or in the vicinity of children.
2. This sewing computer must only be used as described in this
manual. Accessories must only be used if they comply with
the descriptions in this manual and the manufacturers rec-
ommendations, otherwise the appliance might be damaged.
3. Never use the sewing computer if a cable or connector is
damaged, not working properly or fault-free, after it being
dropped or damaged or after it coming into contact with
water. In every one of those cases, please bring the sewing
computer to the nearest authorized specialty retailer or to
the service centre to have it checked and repaired resp. to

5. Keep your fingers away from all moving parts. Increased cau-
tion is called for in the vicinity of the sewing needle. Moving
parts such as needle, presser foot lifter, etc. are especially
dangerous for hands and fingers. The sewing area is to be
watched constantly while the machine is in use. Adjustments
on the machine, f.e. changing of the needle, threading, insert-
ing the bobbin or changing the foot are only to be made while
the machine is switched off (Main switch set to „O").
6. Always disconnect the sewing computer from the power
when maintenance is performed according to the manual,
f.e. when the cover is removed, the appliance is oiled resp.
cleaned or if the light bulb is changed. This means pulling the
power plug. Also pull the power plug when the appliance is
moved or out of use.
7. To switch off, set the main switch to „O" and pull the plug.
Always pull the plug from the socket when leaving the ma-
chine unsupervised to prevent injuries caused by accidental
activation.
8. Do not pull on the cord to disconnect the plug from the sock-
et. Always use the plug itself, not the cord, to disconnect.
9. The power cord must not be left to hang over corners or
edges or be squashed (Risk of electric shock!). Place the cord
in such a way that nobody can trip over it.
10. Always use a correct needle plate cover that has been includ-
ed with this sewing computer. Using the wrong needle plate
cover can cause the needle to break.
11. Do not use any crooked or broken needles.
12. Always use the appliance on a dry, stable and level worktop.
Keep it clear from hot surfaces and open flame.
