Safety instructions

Like any other electrical device, a sewing machine can cause serious, even
life-threatening injuries. To avoid these, and to work safely:
• Always disconnect the power supply when leaving the machine unattended.
This will prevent the risk of accidents if the machine is switched on
accidentally.
• Always first disconnect the power plug before carrying out maintenance
work on the machine. This will prevent possibly life-threatening electric
shocks. The LED light is not exchangeable.
• Do not pull the plug out of the wall socket by the lead. When pulling
out the plug, always hold the plug, not the lead.
• Only use the sewing machine in dry rooms.
• Arrange for defective power plugs and/or cables to be replaced at
once by qualified technicians or our Customer Service Department.
• This appliance is not intended for use by individuals (including children) with
restricted physical, physiological or intellectual abilities or deficiences in
experience and/or knowledge unless they are supervised by a person
responsible for their safety or receive from this person instruction in how
the appliance is to be used.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with
the appliance.
• Never use the machine when the ventilation apertures are blocked.
Keep the ventilation apertures of the machine and the foot switch free
from fluff, dust and waste material.
• Should the cable connected to the foot pedal become damaged,
to avoid potential risks it must be replaced by the manufacturer, his
customers services or a similarly qualified person.
