Operating Instructions:
The symbol "O" on a switch indicates the "off" position of
a switch.
For appliances with a polarized plug (one blade wider
than the other): To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way.
If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to
install the proper outlet. Do not modify the plug in any
way (U.S.A. and Canada only).
* Foot control model YC-485EC-1 is used with this
sewing machine (U.S.A and Canada only).
