Hello,
I'll give you a link to download the file and steps. But I would like to quote a few things to read and I would in no way be responsible for any damages that may be caused by this manipulation, you are aware of the risks:

1 - Remember to send the unit to Acer if your warranty is still valid may be better.
2 - This method worked with me it does not necessarily mean it will work with you.
3 - The version of my device "Acer Z2 WW 1.007.00 GEN1" and I think this update is specifically for this version, remember to check your version (maybe there were different versions for device)
4 - My device "Acer Z2 Duo" (dual sim)

The steps to follow.
1-Download the file and put it in the root of your SD card.
2-Turn off your phone, press the volume up and power button and hold both until vibration.
3 - In the menu that appears you will have:
"select boot mode:
volume_up to select. volume_down is OK
recovery mode
fastboot Mode
Normal mode "

4 - Select "Recovery Mode" and press volume - (move with volume + and validate with volume -)
5 - You have an image, press the "home" button (the one in the middle)
6 - Move to "apply update from sdcard" (move with the volume + / -). Confirm with the "menu" button (the right one)
7 - Select the desired file on your SD card and press the "menu" button
8 - Wait until the operation finish and restart by selecting "reboot system now".
9 - wait till your device restart normally ...

Acer Z2 sdUpdate

You can get the official ROM to put on an SD card from acer's website straight. Just go to support, type the serial number of your phone (SNID) you can usually read inside it behind the battery, then download the 'OS'. This will give you a ~300MB ZIP file which you can put on your SD card.

I'd rather do that than get it from some website or sharing site with 0 reputation.
