XPS 12 9Q33 BIOS update problems

According to the download description of the latest BIOS update:

9Q33A08.exe

Download Type:HTTP
File Size: 12 MB
Format Description:This file format consists of a BIOS executable file. The Universal (Windows/MS DOS) format can be used to install from any Windows or MS DOS environment.
Apparently, this is plain wrong - whenever I try to update the BIOS from a FreeDOS environment, I get an error message the executable has to be run under Windows.
As this laptop has no Windows, updating from Windows is no option.
