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 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.
