Update
An update involves updating the firmware to add new features and resolve any problems that might exist. Here, the device sets up a connection with an update server, from which it downloads the latest firmware. (The settings on the device remain unchanged). There are three ways of carrying out an update:
•Manual update
•Automatic update
•Provisioning
*Further help under Using provisioning
If the "Check for updates" function is activated, the device searches for updates at these times:
•Update attempt when the phone is restarted
•Update attempt after provisioning
•Update attempt according to the schedule.
*Note: An update can trigger a data migration. The phone cannot be used while this is happening. A message appears on the display to tell you a data migration is taking place.

Automatic update process
It can take up to 60 minutes to perform an automatic update.
When you set the Weekday/Clock Time for an automatic update, the system checks for new firmware during this time period and downloads and installs it if necessary.
Is automatic update is not enabled, the system only checks for a newer version of the firmware during this time period.
If there is a newer version of the firmware, you are informed in a message on the screen.
