Preparation

Check the software version

Your software may already be up to date. If you're not sure, it's easy to check which version of software you have by following these instructions:

1. Turn on your TV and press the HELP button on the remote.
2. On the TV screen, the software version number is shown below the model name.
   
   • Model: KD-xxxxxxxx
   • Software version: xxxxxxxx

If the version number is lower than 60521000, please install version 60521000 from the Download section on your model page before you install version 60751000. If the version number is 60751000 or higher, you already have the most recent software version and updating is not required.
