You can cut wirelessly using Cricut Maker and Cricut Explore machines via Bluetooth. Follow
the steps below to pair them with your computer or mobile device:
Note: Cricut Explore and Cricut Explore One require a Wireless Bluetooth Adapter to cut
1. Ensure your Cricut Explore or Cricut Maker machine is powered on and within 10-15 feet of your computer. If you have a Cricut Explore or Cricut Explore One, ensure that your Wireless Bluetooth Adapter is inserted.
2. Most computers are Bluetooth enabled. However, to determine whether your computer is Bluetooth enabled, right click on the Start button and select Device Manager.
3. If Bluetooth is listed, your computer is Bluetooth enabled. If not, you will need to purchase a USB device called a Bluetooth Dongle to enable your computer to talk to other Bluetooth devices.
6. If Bluetooth is off, tap it to turn it on. You will see your Cricut Bluetooth device.
7. Select your adapter/Bluetooth module name from the list (You will find the name of your
adapter in your packaging materials.)
8. When prompted, type PIN 0000, then tap Pair.
9. Pairing is now complete.
Tip: It is normal for Cricut Maker or Cricut Explore machines to show up as Audio in the list. If
you have multiple Cricut machines, you can identify the one you want to pair using its device
code. This can be found on the bottom of the machine on the serial number tag.
10. Select Pair. When prompted, type the PIN code 0000 and select Pair.
11. Pairing is now complete.
Note: The Mac computer will not always show "Connected" unless the program is
