Use and Care Manual

Occasionally, ﬁrmware releases are planned or the process may get interrupted. Rather than waiting

for the system to prompt the ﬁrmware update, you may choose to do the update at your own

convenience.

Tip: During the ﬁrmware update process, the power button is red, indicating that the update is in

progress. If the update process is interrupted or unsuccessful, the power button will stay red and

prevent you from turning your machine o. In the unlikely event that this happens, restart the

ﬁrmware process manually.

Step 1: After you’ve logged in with your Cricut ID, select “Update Firmware” from the Account menu.

Step 2: Power on your Cricut® machine and connect it to your computer.

• Cricut Explore® machines must be connected via USB; ﬁrmware update is not available

over Bluetooth®

• Cricut Explore Air® machines can be updated update via Bluetooth® or USB
