My Kindle Paperwhite 7th Generation was upgraded to 5.11.1.1 early this year. Late, I upgrade the firmware to 5.11.2. Now it is another upgrade available online.
Check the version before upgrading.

I touched the settings and settings again, to check the upgrade availability.

Touch the confirm to upgrade. It may restart two times. Just have a patient and wait for it finishes.
