Adjust the slider bars to generally increase or decrease the thread tension/thread metering for all stitches and/or embroidery. Default setting is normal. Once you have increased or decreased the value in the Settings menu, the thread tension control icon or thread metering control icon will change to red. Note: Contact you authorized PFAFF® dealer if you experience thread tension/thread metering problems that cannot be helped with the Thread tension/thread metering compensation. ActivStitch™ Technology The ActivStitch™ Technology feature controls the needle thread in two ways: thread tension and thread metering. When activated, the machine will automatically use thread metering if possible. Depending on your other settings, the machine will automatically use thread tension in some cases, e.g., when free-motion is active. Certain optional accessories or special techniques may require the use of thread tension for best results. Deselect ActivStitch™ Technology to switch to thread tension.
