FCC STATEMENT

GETTING STARTED

Installing the Cutting Blade Assembly

Please note that the Cricut Imagine™cutting blade assembly is located in the bot-

tom of your box, separate from the machine. Before you turn the machine on, you

will need to insert the blade assembly. To do this:

1. Remove the cardboard inserts from both

sides of the carriage. Open the front door

on the Cricut Imagine™machine. Manually

move the blade carriage assembly to the

left by grasping the black cradle arm and

pulling the assembly toward the center of

the opening.

2. Remove the cutting blade assembly from

its bag. The blade assembly ﬁts into the

black cradle on the left side of the carriage.

Rotate the adjustment knob on the top of

the blade assembly so that the black arrow

on the blade assembly points to the number

3 on the adjustment knob.

3. Locate the silver nut and turn it counter-

clockwise until it loosens enough that you

can swing the screw to the right. Be careful

not to loosen the screw too much or it will

fall out.

4. Open the left arm of the black cradle and

position the cutting blade assembly inside

as shown with the black arrow facing you.

Ensure that the cutting blade has been

inserted into the assembly with the sharp

blade end pointing down. Close the cradle,

swing the nut back to the left, and tighten it

by turning it clockwise.

GETTING STARTED

Installing the HP®Inkjet Print Cartridge

Two print cartridges are available for use with the Cricut Imagine™

machine: black

and tri-color. To install a print cartridge for the ﬁrst time:

1. Turn the machine on by pressing the

Power button.

2. After the initial loading screen, open the ink

access door located at the back left corner

of the machine and lift the green and black

print cartridge latches.

5. Return the cutter head assembly to its stor-

age position by gently pushing the assembly

to the right until it stops.

6. Plug the machine in and press the Power

button to place the blade assembly in cut-

ting position.

GETTING STARTED

3. Remove the print cartridge from its pack-

age, and then remove the clear nozzle pro-

tective tape by pulling on the pink pull-tab.

CAUTION: To prevent clogs, ink failure,

and bad electrical connections, do not

touch the print cartridge ink nozzles or

copper contacts, and do not remove the

copper contacts.

4. Find the identiﬁcation symbol on the print

cartridge and locate the print cartridge

latch which has the same symbol.

5. Hold the print cartridge with the copper

contacts facing the printer, and then slide

the print cartridge fully into the cradle.

NOTE: If you have trouble inserting the

print cartridge after lifting the cartridge

latch, verify that the printer is on and wait a

few seconds for the carriage to disengage

before inserting the print cartridge.

6. Push down on the print cartridge latch until

it snaps closed. Make sure the latch does

not spring back open.

NOTE: If the latch springs back open,

remove the print cartridge and repeat steps

4 and 5.

7. Close the ink access door.

GETTING STARTED

Calibration

Prior to your ﬁrst use of your Cricut Imagine™

, the machine will run three calibra-

tion routines. There are instructions on the screen which will direct you through

each calibration process.

The ﬁrst calibration is a screen calibration and will not require any printing or cut-

ting. The next two calibrations will require you to put a 12"x 12"white piece of

paper on the mat and insert the mat into the machine. For assistance in mount-

ing paper on the mat for the ﬁrst time, please see instructions on page 13. After

inserting the second piece of 12"x 12"white paper and the cut and print are

complete, the Cricut Imagine™will ask you to select a number and letter for which

the printed lines are cut most accurately. Click Test Cut and the machine will begin

cutting. Examine the cut in the center of the page to determine if the cut stayed

inside the printed line. If the cut was successful in staying inside the printed line,

click the Accept button. If the cut was outside of the printed lines, select Repeat

to run the test again. For more information on the Print & Cut calibrations, see the

instructions on page 32.

Positioning Your Cricut Imagine™Machine

Place your Cricut Imagine™machine at least 12"(30.48 cm) from the edge of your

table to prevent it from tipping and causing possible injury. Allow 12"(30.48 cm) in

the back of the Cricut Imagine™machine for mat movement.

When positioning your Cricut Imagine™machine, choose a location that:

• cannot be accessed by children. The Cricut Imagine™machine is not a toy

and contains components, including a sharp blade, that could be hazardous

to children.

• is a hard, stable, and ﬂat surface within 6 feet (1.83 meters) of a grounded

electrical outlet, and that has a minimum clearance of 12"(30.48 cm) behind the

Cricut Imagine™machine for paper movement.

• is indoors or in a dry location where the Cricut®cartridges are not directly

exposed to the effects of the weather.

• is away from direct exposure to sunlight or extreme temperatures such as in

parked cars, storage sheds, sunrooms, etc.

WARNING! Your Cricut Imagine™machine should never be left or stored outside,

in locations without heat or air conditioning, or in environments where the ma-

chine or cartridges can come in contact with water. It is recommended your

Cricut Imagine™be maintained in an area with temperatures between 60 and 90 °F

(15.5 and 32.2 °C).
