> Bring the two cord ends to the front of the foot and insert them in the grooves, then temporarily tie
them there.
> The stitch width and stitch length has to be adjusted before the sewing starts.
> Lower the presser foot an sew the buttonhole.
– The buttonhole will sew over the cord, covering it.

9.5 Sewing on buttons

With the button sew-on program, buttons with 2 or 4 holes, push buttons or latches can be sewn on. For a
increased stability the button sew-on program can be sewn twice. When sewing on a button with 4 holes,
the front holes should be sewn first.
