STITCH SETTINGS
(only active in Sewing mode)
In the Stitch Settings screen, you can set the presser foot
pressure and balance a stitch or buttonhole. These settings
will only be valid for the stitch that is currently selected.
If another stitch is selected or the same stitch is selected
again, the stitch value is reset to the default value. Default
number is black.
EXCLUSIVE SENSOR SYSTEM™ Feature - Sensor
Foot Pressure
Thanks to the Sensor Foot Pressure, the machine actually
senses the thickness of the fabric, embroidery or stitching
to sew over it smoothly and evenly with perfect, even fabric
feed.
Touch + to increase or - to decrease the pressure of the
presser foot on the fabric.

Balance Controls

When sewing on special fabrics or doing a specialty
technique, the balance of the stitch may need to be
adjusted.
Sensor Foot
Balance Width
Pressure
Start by sewing a stitch on a piece of scrap fabric with
Balance Length
stabilizer underneath. In the SET Menu, select Stitch
Settings. Change the picture of the stitch on the screen to
match your sewn sample, using the + and - icons. Make the
stitch on the screen look like your unbalanced stitch-out.
Now when you sew again on the same fabric, the balance will
be corrected. The machine will balance the stitch for you.
Note: Use the Pan icons. The Pan feature lets you see the whole stitch.
