Preparations Bobbin Winding All types of thread, including specialty threads such as invisible or other stretchy threads, metallic or flat metallic threads, should be wound directly from the auxiliary spool pin without passing the needle and presser foot. Note: Always wind specialty threads at lower speed. 1. Place a thread spool on the auxiliary spool pin. Using both hands, pull the thread behind the right clip on the telescopic thread guide (A). The thread should run from right to left. 2. Bring the thread through bobbin winding thread tension guide (B) from back to front and to the left. Bring the thread through bobbin winding thread guide (C) as illustrated. For some specialty threads, following the normal threading path will result in a bobbin that is wound too tight. If this happens, bypass thread tension (B) to reduce the amount of tension on the thread. Pull the thread from thread guide (A) directly to the bobbin instead. 3. Thread through the slot in the bobbin (D) from the inside to the outside. Place the bobbin on the bobbin spindle (C). The bobbin only fits on one way, with the logo facing out. The bobbins included are designed especially for your creative icon™ machine. Do not use bobbins from other machine models. 4. Push the bobbin winding lever (E) towards the bobbin. A pop-up appears on screen. To adjust winding speed drag the slider. Hold the thread end firmly when starting to wind. Touch the play button in the popup window and let the thread wind a few turns. Touch the pause icon and cut the loose thread end close to the bobbin. Press play again. 5. When the bobbin is full, the bobbin winding lever will move back and the winding will stop automatically. The pop-up message closes. Remove the bobbin and cut the thread using the bobbin winding thread cutter (F). 42 A C B D F E
