My 440QE manual says . . .

"if the sewing computer was cleaned the display can be cleared by pressing the "#" button twice" (this is what I did and it worked)

"the display can be cleared temporarily by pressing the "clr" button but will appear again when restarting the sewing computer"

"after clearing with "clr" for the third time the cleaning notification will only appear again after a further approx. 180,000 stitches"

Where to oil my 440QE? 21 Jul 2009 20:59 #36787

KonoJean OFFLINE Posts: 5	Help! I am in the midst of moving and can't find my manual. The little oilcan icon keeps flashing. I've oiled the bobbin case. Where else do I need to oil? And how do I get the oilcan to disappear?
