+Please download and install the **Java 8** version of the JVM.
+openHAB does not work well with newer Java versions such as Java 9 or Java 11.
 
-Please use the **32-bit version** of the JVM for ARM platforms, even on 64-bit operating systems.
-Serial connections won't work with a 64-bit JVM, preventing bindings like Z-Wave from functioning.
+The **64-bit version** of the JVM is recommended on platforms using a 64-bit OS and an Intel or AMD processor.
+
+The **32-bit version** of the JVM is recommended on ARM platforms such as the Raspberry Pi.
+The 32-bit JVM performs better on the ARM platform and some add-ons use libraries that do not work with a 64-bit JVM on the ARM platform.
 
 For best compatibility, namely with the openHAB Cloud service [myopenhab.org](http://www.myopenhab.org) and the [Eclipse IoT Marketplace]({{base}}/configuration/eclipseiotmarket.html), the minimum recommended Java 8 revision is "161".
 Attention: Most package managers serve an **older revision**.
