    You directly install the latest version, unless stated otherwise. Please check the current version of BIOS installed on your device
    If your BIOS is R01, you can't update to R02 ( only compatible with Intel 7th Gen Kabylake platform). For example the BIOS you should upgarde to is R01.A4

    If still unable to update, try to update BIOS to R01.A2, boot and check if everything is working fine, then update to R01.A4.
    Note : Upgrading your system BIOS incorrectly could harm your Acer product. Please proceed with caution.
