Do you have a question about the creative 3.0 and is the answer not in the manual?
Questions and answers
machine will not sew due to pop up message "remove sensormatic buttonhole foot" (there is no other accessories attached only the 0 6 sewing foot.
The Pfaff creative 3.0 sewing machine displays the message "Remove Sensormatic Buttonhole Foot" when only the 0 6 sewing foot is attached because the machine detects that the Sensormatic buttonhole foot is still in use. This message appears when sewing a stitch that is not a buttonhole, sewing a buttonhole that cannot be sewn with the Sensormatic buttonhole foot, or sewing an adjusted buttonhole saved without it in the Personal menu. Removing the Sensormatic buttonhole foot resolves this issue.

machine will not sew due to pop up message "remove sensormatic buttonhole foot" (there is no other accessories attached only the 0 6 sewing foot)
The Pfaff creative 3.0 sewing machine displays the message "Remove Sensormatic buttonhole foot" when only the 0 6 sewing foot is attached because the Sensormatic buttonhole foot must be removed before sewing any stitch that is not a buttonhole, sewing a buttonhole that cannot be sewn with the Sensormatic buttonhole foot, or sewing an adjusted buttonhole saved without the Sensormatic buttonhole foot in the Personal menu.
