Respond to a system software notification
When you get a notification that a system update is available, do one of
the following:
• Tap Install Now twice. When installation is complete and the device
resets, tap Done. Installation times vary, depending on the size of the
update. You cannot use your device while an update is being installed.
• Tap Install Later. The next time you charge your device, you receive
another update notification. You can again choose whether to install
the update now or later. If you do not tap Install Later within 10 minutes
of receiving the notification, installation begins automatically.
Here is some additional information about system updates:
• If you have Wi-Fi turned on and the battery has enough charge, your
device automatically downloads a system update if one is available—
you don’t have to do anything. If Wi-Fi is not turned on when the
update becomes available, the webOS servers continue to check your
device for Wi-Fi availability.
• If the battery does not have enough charge, you must charge the
battery before you can download or install an update.
• If you do not install an update immediately after downloading it, you
are prompted to install the update the next time you charge your
device. You can choose whether to install the update now or later. You
have ten minutes to decide; otherwise, the update installs automatically.

TIP If you don’t want to install the update at this time, close System Updates by
throwing its app card off the top of the screen (see Close an application or
application screen).
