The manual walks you through manually updating firmware on page 99 of the manual. You can use this and instead of slecting the most recent firmware, you can use the prior firmware to downgrade to. Older firmware can be found on the support site under downloads   +view previous versions.

Anytime you change firmware, make sure to do it over a hardwired connection.  Make sure to factory reset after downgrading as well.
