Needle position On my Singer 8763 Curvy, how do I set my needle to stop in the down position instead of the up position? I would like to applique and need my needle to stop down when I release the pedal.

I buyed a new sewing machine curvy 8763 and when i start trheading the bobbin the needle stats working as well and it starts beeping
