Using the Fingerprint Scanner
(Optional)
CAUTION:
For optimal performance, both the scanning surface and the finger
should be clean and dry. Clean the scanning surface when needed. You
can use adhesive tape to remove dirt and oil from the scanner surface.
It is not recommended that you use the fingerprint scanner in a below-
freezing temperature. The moisture on your finger can freeze to the
scanner’s metal surface when you touch it, resulting in a failed operation.
Besides, touching freezing metal with your finger can cause frostbite.
The fingerprint scanner (if your model has the feature) provides a strong
authentication mechanism based on fingerprint recognition. You can log on
to Windows and dismiss the lock screen with an enrolled fingerprint instead
of a password or PIN.
Enrolling a Fingerprint
NOTE: You can enroll a fingerprint only after creating a password/PIN for
the Windows user account.
1. Select Settings Accounts Sign-in options.
2. On the right side under Fingerprint, select Set up.
3. Follow the onscreen instructions to complete.
When placing your finger on the scanner, make sure you position your
finger correctly as described and illustrated below.
