18. Do not put a foreign matter in the ventilation opening and the interior portion of the main body of sewing
machine. Do not insert a screwdriver into them either. The foreign matter or the screwdriver can touch the high-
voltage section to invite a risk of electrical shock.
19. Do not place fingers under the needle.
20. Be sure to use genuine parts for the main body of sewing machine described in the Instruction Manual. The use
of any other part can cause personal injury and the sewing machine failure.
21. Be sure to keep the plastic bag in which the main body of sewing machine is packed away from children or
discard it to prevent them from playing with it by pulling over the head.
22. Be sure to carry the sewing machine by holding its handle. If you carry the sewing machine by holding any other
section, the machine can drop off your hand causing personal injury.
Warning
For the combination of the material and the thread and needle, in particular, refer to the explanation table in "How to select
thread and needle which match the material" to find an appropriate combination.
If the needle or thread does not match the material used such as in the case that an extra heavy-weight material (e.g.,
denim) is sewn with a thin needle (#11 or higher), the needle can break resulting in an unexpected personal injury.
Other precautions
● Do not put the sewing machine under the direct
sunlight or in a humid place.
Be aware that the following phenomena can occur since the sewing machine incorporates a micro-computer,
semiconductor electronic parts and precise electronic circuits.
● Be sure to use the sewing machine in the
temperature range from 5ºC to 40ºC.
If the temperature is excessively low, the machine
can fail to operate normally.
* The operating temperature of the sewing machine is between 5ºC and 40ºC. Do not use the sewing machine under the
direct sunlight, near the burning things such as a stove and candle, or in a humid place. By so doing, the temperature
in the interior portion of the sewing machine can rise or the coating of the power cord can melt, causing fire or electrical
shock.
● Do not wipe the sewing machine with solvent such as
thinner.
When the sewing machine is
soiled, put a small quantity
of neutral detergent on
a piece of soft cloth and
carefully wipe off the sewing
machine with it.
● If the sewing machine continuously runs at a low speed
for a prolonged time, the safety device will be activated
to stop the sewing machine to prevent the machine from
becoming abnormally hot. At this time, the start/stop
button does not light up.
Approximately 10 minutes later,
the safety device returns to its
normal state. Then, the sewing
machine can be used normally.
