Points to note about the Fingerprint Sensor

Please be aware of the following considerations when using the fingerprint sensor. A failure to follow these guidelines might result in damage to the sensor, sensor failure, fingerprint recognition problems or a lower fingerprint recognition success rate.

■Do not scratch or poke the sensor with your nails or any hard or sharp objects.

■Do not press the sensor strongly.

■Do not touch the sensor with a wet finger or any wet objects - keep the sensor surface dry and free from water vapor.

■Do not touch the sensor with a soiled or dirty finger as minute foreign particles of dust and dirt may scratch it.

■Do not paste stickers or write on the sensor.

■Do not touch the sensor with a finger or any other object which may have a build-up of static electricity on it.

Observe the following before you place your finger on the sensor whether for fingerprint enrollment/registration or recognition.

■Wash and dry your hands thoroughly.

■Remove static electricity from your fingers by touching any metal surface. Static electricity is a common cause of sensor failures, especially when the weather is dry.

■Clean the sensor with a lint-free cloth - do not use detergent or any other chemicals to clean the sensor.

■Avoid the following finger conditions for enrollment or recognition as they may result in fingerprint enrollment errors or a drop in the fingerprint recognition success rate

■Soaked or swollen finger, for example as may occur after taking a bath.■Injured finger■Wet finger■Soiled or oily finger■Extremely dry skin condition on fingerObserve the following to improve the fingerprint recognition success rate.■Enroll two or more fingers.

■Enroll additional fingers if a recognition failure often occurs when using already enrolled fingers.

■Check the condition of your finger - any conditions which have changed since enrollment, such as injury, rough skin, and extremely dry, wet, soiled, dirty, oily, soaked or swollen fingers, may lower the recognition success rate. Also if the fingerprint is worn down or the finger becomes thinner or fatter, the recognition success rate may be lowered.

■As the fingerprint for each finger is different and unique you should ensure that only the registered or enrolled fingerprint or fingerprints are used for identification.
