How do I resume embroidering after turning off the machine ?

In either of following cases, the remaining stitches of the embroidery are stored in the machine's memory.

  • If the machine's power switch is pressed to turn off after stopping embroidering.
    Cut the thread before the machine's main power switch is turned off, otherwise the thread may be pulled or may catch when the carriage returns to its initial position after the machine is truned on again.
  • If the machine was accidentally turned off, for example, due to a power outage, while it was embroidering.
    The remainder of the embroidery can be sewn when the machine is turned on again; however, some of the stitches that were already sewn may be sewn again.

     

    Be careful when going back or forward through the stitching since the embroidery frame moves at the same time.

  1. Set the main power switch to " | " to on the machine.

  2. When the machine is turned on, the opening movie is played. Touch anywhere on the screen to display the message below.
