Precautions for fingerprint recognition

Fingerprint recognition accuracy may decrease due to a number of reasons. To maximize the recognition accuracy, check the following before using the device.

•If you bend your finger or use the fingertip only, your fingerprint may not be recognized. Make sure that your finger covers the entire surface of the fingerprint sensor.

•Scan only one finger for each registration. Scanning more than one finger may affect fingerprint registration and recognition.

•The device may generate static electricity if the surrounding air is dry. If the surrounding air is dry, avoid scanning fingerprints, or touch a metallic object, such as coin or key, to remove static electricity before scanning fingerprints.
