Updating happens automatically on Kies if there is an update available when you connect your device to your computer via USB.

 This may also be labeled “Check for updates”. Your device will check to see if any updates are available. Update availability is dependent on your device’s manufacturer as well as your mobile service provider. New updates may not always be available for all devices.

    If there is an update available, the update will begin downloading to your device. For larger updates, this could take awhile, and you should have your device connected to a Wi-Fi network so that you avoid going over your data allotment.

Once the update has finished downloading, the device will need to restart in order to install the software. This will render your device inoperable for a few minutes during the update process.
