SOLVED - BIOS doesn't recognize archlinux-2017.04.01-x86_64.iso

Hi folks. I'm preparing to reinstall arch next to windows 10 on my lenovo yoga 3 pro, but after I wrote the last iso (April 2017 if I remember correctly) on a USB stick, I tried to launch it from bios in uefi mode but seems that it isn't recognized.
I tried to do the same thing with Ubuntu iso 16:04:02 and instead this is recognized by the bios without problems.
How do I install arch at this point?

How did you write the image to the USB stick?

sudo dd if=archlinux-2017.04.01-x86_64.iso of=/dev/sdc

I didn't check the wiki, I'll try again with the command it suggest.

Sorry, my error. With the wiki command everything works. Thank you WorMzy!
