6.1. Using the Drive as a Registered User
1.Once your drive is plugged in and switched on, a window appears asking you to swipe your fin- ger over the sensor.
2.This is the first screen you will see with normal use. To unlock your LaCie SAFE Hard Drive, place a registered finger flat in the recess of the fingerprint sensor. Make sure the top of your finger touches the top of the recess and slide it down slowly. For more on how to use the fin- gerprint sensor see section 3.1. How to Use the Fingerprint Sensor. If you are having trouble getting the fingerprint sensor to recognize you, see section 10. Troubleshooting the Fingerprint Sensor.
