Pattern to unlock you trace a pattern with your finger on the
screen. This option gives medium security.

•
numbers only. Enter at least four numbers, and then enter the

•
sists of characters and/or numbers. Enter at least four characters
including numbers and symbols, and then enter the password
again to verify it. This option gives high security.

Fingerprint to unlock you use your fingerprint to unlock. The fin-
gerprint unlock method requires a PIN as well. See more at Fin-
gerprint recognition, p.12. This option gives medium to high

IMPORTANT!
It makes sense to choose a password, PIN code or a pattern that is easy
to remember, but try to make it difficult enough so that others can't
guess it. The password, PIN code or pattern screen lock, together with
your Google account login is the basis for the anti-theft features on this
phone. Enabling a secure screen lock and having a Google account on
your phone will make it difficult for a thief or other person getting access
to your personal data or even resetting your phone. Keep the secure
screen lock information and Google account login stored in a safe place!,
see Reset the phone, p.41.
Note! The available options may vary depending on the screen lock
method selected.
Fingerprint recognition
In order for fingerprint recognition to work, your fingerprint information
needs to be registered and stored in your device. After registering, you can
set the device to use your fingerprint for screen unlock and other features,
