Online Updates

Sonos periodically provides you with software updates to improve performance or to add new features. Your music system must be registered in order to receive updates. If you have not yet registered, see System Registration.

Checking for updates

1.From the Music menu, select System Settings>Online Updates and press OK.

2.If there is an update available, select Yes to begin the update process.

Your ZonePlayers and Controllers will all be updated, as your Sonos compo- nents must carry the same software version number. This process may take sev- eral minutes per device, depending upon your network connection.

If you have the Desktop Controller software installed, you will be prompted to update it the next time you start the application.

Caution: Do not disconnect power from your ZonePlayer(s), or in any way disable your Sonos Digital Music System while this process is running. Contact Sonos Customer Support if an error occurs.
