6. “Always use the proper needle plate. The wrong plate can cause the needle to break.”
7. “Do not use bent needles.”
8. “Do not pull or push fabric while stitching. It may deflect the needle causing it to break.”
9. “Switch the sewing machine off ("O") when making any adjustments in the needle area, such as threading
needle, changing needle, threading bobbin, or changing presser foot and the like.”
10. “Always unplug sewing machine from the electrical outlet when removing covers, lubricating, or when making
any other user servicing adjustments mentioned in the instruction manual.”
11. “Never drop or insert any object into any opening.”
12. “Do not use outdoors.”
13. “Do not operate where aerosol (spray) products are being used or where oxygen is being administered.”
14. “To disconnect, turn all controls to the off (“O”) position, then remove plug from outlet.”
15. “Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.”
“SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS”
