Automatic Presser Foot Lift When selected, the machine automatically raises the presser foot in the following situations: • When stopping with the needle in down position the presser foot will automatically raise to pivot height. • After a thread cut the presser foot will be raised to lift position. When deselected, the presser foot will stay lowered, even if the machine stops with the needle in down position. Automatic Thread Cutter When selected, the threads are cut automatically in the following situations: • At cut commands in stitches and sequences. • After sewing a single stitch e.g. a monogram or eyelets. If deselected, no automatic thread cut will be performed. Note: Deselect when using optional accessories that are attached in the two holes in the needle plate just above the bobbin cover, to prevent damage to the automatic thread cutter knife located under the needle plate. Free-Motion Options All stitches on your machine can be sewn in free-motion mode to create fantastic effects. You can select between three different Free-Motion Options. For all free-motion sewing the Feed Dogs will lower automatically and the fabric must be moved manually. Free-Motion Options are accessible both in Settings and if you touch Free-Motion icon in Sewing Mode. Your Temporary Settings are shown under Active features in the Information Area.
