Check that the needle drops at the desired
position and lower the presser foot, making
sure the upper thread passes underneath
the buttonhole foot.
Note
• Pass the thread underneath the presser foot.
• Set the presser foot so that there is no gap
behind the section marked with an "A+" (the
shaded area in the illustration below). If there
is a gap, the size of the darning will not be
correct.

Gently hold the end of the upper thread,
and then press the "Start/Stop" button to
start the machine.
Once sewing is completed, the machine
automatically sews reinforcement stitches, and then
stops.
