Using the fingerprint reader

Depending on the model, your computer might have a fingerprint reader. Fingerprint authentication can
replace your passwords, such as the Windows password, power-on password, and hard disk password. In
this way, you can log in to your computer simply and securely.
To enable fingerprint authentication, enroll your fingerprints first. During the enrollment, the fingerprints are
associated with the Windows password automatically. To associate your fingerprints with your power-on
password and hard disk password, manually create a connection.
Enrolling your fingerprints
It is recommended that you enroll more than one fingerprint in case of any injuries to your fingers. To
enroll your fingerprints, do the following:
• For Windows 7 and Windows 8.1
1. Start the Fingerprint Manager Pro program. For instructions on how to start the Fingerprint Manager
Pro program, see "Lenovo programs" on page 13.
2. Enter the Windows password as required.
3. Click the icon for the finger that you want to enroll, and constantly swipe your corresponding finger
across the fingerprint reader until the enrollment completes.
4. Click Finish. Your fingerprint is enrolled successfully.
For more information about how to use the fingerprint reader, refer to the help system of the Fingerprint
Manager Pro program.
• For Windows 10

programs, and then click Settings ➙ Accounts ➙ Sign-in options.
