You can lock the screen to prevent accidental operation. You can also enhance security by requiring a PIN,
pattern, or password to prevent the screen from being unlocked.
Configuring the screen lock
1. Swipe up the home screen, and then in the app list, tap [Settings] ® [Security & location] ® [Screen
lock].

If the screen lock is already configured, you must unlock the unit before configuring a different unlock
method.
2.
Select the desired unlock method and then follow the on-screen instructions.
Note

The risk of unauthorized access to the unit is increased when using the [None] and [Swipe] unlock
