USING SENSOR FUNCTIONS WITH SEWING STITCH
B-64
Before using the sensor functions, carefully read “Utility Stitches” chapter to familiarize yourself with the
machine operations.
The sensor functions are performed using the sensor pen.
Sensor Function Area
When using the sensor pen with utility stitches, the
operations may differ depending on the area to be
touched.
Specifying the Guideline Marker
Position With the Sensor Pen
The sewing position will be indicated by a red
guideline marker.
The position of the guideline marker can be
adjusted to your desired location.
a
Turn on the machine.
