Read all the instructions before using this sewing machine. When using an electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the ones below.

DANGER - to reduce the risk of electric shock

• Never leave the machine unattended while it is plugged in. Always unplug it from the socket straight after use and before cleaning.

WARNING - to reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock or injury to people

• Do not let the machine be used as a toy. Take close care when it is used by or near children.
• This machine is not intended for use by people (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction on using it by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to make sure they do not play with the machine.
• Only use the machine for its intended purpose, as described in this manual. Only use attachments recommended by the manufacturer, as listed in this manual.
• Never use the machine if the cord or plug is damaged, if it is not working properly, or if it has been dropped, damaged or dropped into water. Take it to your nearest authorised dealer or service centre to be examined, repaired or adjusted, electrically or mechanically.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or a similarly qualified person, to avoid a hazard.
• Never use the machine with any of its air openings blocked. Keep the ventilation openings of the machine and the foot control free from lint, dust and loose cloth.
• Never drop or insert any object into any opening.
• Indoor use only.
• Do not use where aerosol (spray) products are being used or where oxygen is being given.
• To disconnect, turn the power switch to O (off), then take the plug out of the socket.
• Switch off or unplug the machine when you leave it unattended, and unplug it before carrying out maintenance.
• Do not unplug by pulling the cord. Hold the plug, not the cord.
• Keep your fingers away from all moving parts. Take special care around the needle.
• Never sew with a damaged needle plate - it can make the needle break.
• Do not use bent needles.
• Do not pull or push the fabric while sewing. It can bend the needle and make it break.
• Turn the power switch to O (off) when making any adjustments in the needle area - threading the needle, changing the needle, threading the bobbin, changing the presser foot and so on.
• Always unplug the machine from the socket when removing covers, oiling, or making any other user servicing adjustment mentioned in this manual.
