Updating Android to the Latest Version

Update your tablet device to the latest version of Android when updates become available.

Note

Once you have updated, you cannot return your tablet device to an older version of Android. Updating

requires the remaining battery level to be at 50% or greater and use of the AC adapter. Your tablet device

may no longer turn on if the battery is depleted while updating.

The data stored on the internal storage (memory space in your tablet device) will not be erased by updating.

There must be enough free space on the internal storage to download the update files when updating.

Some applications may not be compatible with the updated version of Android, and they may no longer run

after updating.

Be sure to check the Android version that each application is compatible with before updating.

Updating may take longer if you connect to the Internet using the mobile communications function. In addition,

large data charges may be incurred depending on the service you subscribe to.

Tap [

Apps & Widgets] - [

Settings] - [About tablet].

Tap [System updates].

The screen to start updating is displayed when an update is available. Start updating by following the

instructions on the screen.
