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
sensor surface dry and free of 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.
