WArnInG! Do not touch the mat during printing and cutting even if the mat
stops moving. There are many steps to printing and cutting, one of which is dry-
ing. During drying and other steps the machine may appear to be doing nothing.
Do not touch the mat until the Cricut Imagine
ejects it from the machine.
™
Gently remove images from the cutting mat. If it is difficult to remove the charac-
ters, use a craft knife or Cricut Tools
(sold separately) to carefully remove the im-
™
ages. once all images are removed, clean off any small scraps of paper remaining
on the cutting mat. This will improve cutting mat performance in the future.
tIP: To extend the life of your cutting mat, always cover it with the protective
cover and never leave paper on it for an extended period of time.
