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.

available for your device.
