• A simple threading system - The Bernina lay-in system lets you thread quickly and directly-and the automatic lower-looper threading system makes it simpler, too.

• LCD screen - The clear display tells you both personal and default basic settings of stitch variations. You can also read recommended basic thread tension, and save personal settings.
• Patented swing-out presser foot - Simply swing the foot out to the side to give yourself plenty of space for easy threading and hassle-free needle change.
