Swiping your finger over the reader

To swipe your finger over the reader, place the ball of your finger, that is, the central part of the fingerprint, on the small circle above the reader. Make sure that the entire top joint of the finger is on the reader. Then Apply light pressure and swipe your finger across the reader in one smooth motion.

Logging on to the system

After you enroll your fingerprint, log on to the system by doing the following:

1.Set a power-on password or a hard disk password, or both.

2.Turn your computer off and then on again.

3.When prompted, swipe your finger over the reader.

Attention: If you always use your fingerprint to log on to the system, you might forget your password. Write down your password, and keep it in a safe place. If you forget it and for some reason you cannot swipe your finger across the reader, for example, if you injure that finger, you cannot start the computer or change the password.If you forget your power-on password, you must take your computer to a Lenovo authorized servicer or a marketing representative to have the password canceled.
