132 Tablet software update Tablet software update The tablet software update feature allows you to conveniently update the firmware of your tablet to the latest version from the Internet without the need to visit a service center. For more information on firmware and software updates, please visit: http://www.lg.com NOTE Your tablet utilizes both firmware and software. Firmware is a specialized type of software embedded into your tablet's hardware which allows it to run correctly (e.g., functions, speed, communication, etc.) and determines how it stores bits of information. The firmware on your tablet comes from LG and is written specifically for it. On the other hand, software can come from a variety of sources and can be used on various compatible devices. You can access the latest firmware releases, new software features, and improvements with or without connecting your tablet to a PC. • Update your tablet without a PC using the System updates menu on your tablet. • Update your tablet by connecting it to a PC using a USB Cable. For more information and instructions, please visit http://www.lg.com and select the country and language. WARNING The firmware update process requires the user's full attention for the duration of the update process. Please make sure to check all of the instructions and notes that appear at each step before proceeding. NOTE Removing the USB Cable during the update process may seriously damage your tablet.

Software update via Over-the-Air (OTA) You can conveniently update your tablet's firmware to the newer version via OTA without connecting the USB Cable. NOTE This feature is only available if and when LG makes the newer version of the firmware available for your device.
