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.

• The device’s Power/Lock key has a fingerprint sensor. Ensure that

the Power/Lock key is not damaged by a metallic object, such as coin or key.

• When water, dust or other foreign substance is on the Power/Lock

key or your finger, the fingerprint registration or recognition may not work. Clean and dry your finger before using the fingerprint sensor.

• A fingerprint may not be recognized properly if the surface of your

finger has a scar or is not smooth due to being soaked in water.

• 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 Power/Lock key.

finger may affect fingerprint registration and recognition.
