How to Reset a Cricut
- 1). Turn your Cricut off. Grasp the cartridge and lift it to remove it from the cartridge slot. Turn the Cricut back on.
- 2). Roll the three directional dials down to their lowest setting. Grasp the green and gold cartridge holder. Slide the cartridge carrier all the way to the left. Inspect the area behind the cartridge's original resting spot to find a red button.
- 3). Press and hold the red button for three seconds. Grasp the cartridge carrier and move it back to its normal position.
- 4). Roll each of your dials up and down three times. Press "Cut," and then turn the Cricut off. Leave the system alone for about 20 minutes.
- 5). Insert your cartridge into the slot. Turn the Cricut on. Try to operate it. It should function properly.
