CONGRATULATIONS
...on the purchase of this new Singer
®
Computer Sewing Machine. Your new sewing machine is the most innovative
machine ever manufactured. Actually, it is two machines in one... a full featured Standard Sewing Machine and an
exclusive featured Embroidery Sewing Machine. For years sewers have dreamed of owning a machine that would
thread itself, automatically change to a new color thread, never run out of bobbin thread and calculate its own tension re-
quirements. Your new sewing machine has all these features and also employs an exclusive operating system of self-
evident pictograms (“pictos”).
However, as simple as the machine is to operate, to obtain the most enjoyment and take full advantage of all the
features, it is strongly recommended you familiarize yourself with the machine. Following the instruction manual in
sequential order is the best way to build your skills and understanding of all the machines parts and capabilities.
