Note
If automatic thread cutting and automatic
reverse/reinforcement stitching are turned on
before you start sewing, pressing just the
start/stop button automatically sews
reinforcement stitches before sewing. In addition,
pressing the reverse/reinforcement stitch button
at the end of the stitching automatically sews
reinforcement stitches, trims the threads and
stops the machine.
4. Turn over the fabric and remove the basting
stitch.
