Updating the Rovio ﬁrmware

When rmware updates are available, you can download them and update the Rovio.

NOTES:

Ensure that Rovio is on and connected to your network. Also make sure that Rovio

has enough battery power before updating it.

All your settings will be overwritten when you update the rmware image. You will

need to manually recongure them after updating rmware.

IMPORTANT: Do not unplug Rovio from your computer (if plugged to the computer)

nor turn it off while the rmware is being updated. Ensure Rovio is on. To update the

Rovio rmware image:

1. From the Rovio product site (www.myrovio.com) or the WowWee Support

site (www.wowweesupport.com), locate the link for the latest Rovio

rmware image and download it to your computer.

2. Make sure Rovio is ON. In the Rovio interface, click the Settings button.

3. In the System tab, locate the Select Firmware Image eld, and click on the

Browse button. A Choose le dialog appears.

4. Locate the Rovio rmware image le you downloaded (*.bin) and then click

on Open.

5. Click on Update to update the rmware image. Wait for Rovio to reboot.

Your Rovio should be updated with the latest rmware. You can verify the version

number of the rmware in Rovio’s interface (located on the System tab of the

Settings menu).

IMPORTANT: Do not turn off Rovio until it has nished updating. The update will not

take effect until you reboot Rovio. Ensure you have a full battery so that it does not

lose power during the update.

You can also restore Rovio’s default rmware using the Rovio Restore wizard. Refer to

the section Restoring Rovio to factory defaults for more information.
