You don't.

The 2012, 1st gen iPad Mini cannot upgrade/update beyond IOS 9.3.5/9.3.6 for cellular data models.

The internal hardware in older iPad models are too old, now, too underpowered to upgrade any farther.

And this is a moot point now, anyways. it really doesn't matter, now, whether or not your old iPad model can upgrade/update, or not, to IOS 10.

Here's why.

Tap and read my link below for my additional info about your iPad model.

So Sorry & Good Luck to You!
