Using the Fingerprint Scanner
(Optional)
WARNING:
⚫ We shall not be liable for any loss or damage whatsoever resulting from your
use of the fingerprint scanner or neglect of fingerprint scanner use, or any data
loss resulting from such developments as fingerprint authentication
malfunctioning.
⚫ 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.
NOTE:
⚫ You can enroll a fingerprint only after creating a password for the Windows user
account.
⚫ The fingerprint logon process can take a while. This is because the system has
to check hardware devices and security configuration before initiating the
fingerprint scanner.
To enroll your fingerprint:
1. Go to Settings → Accounts → Sign-in options.
