Security Settings
･
For registration/authentication of your fingerprint, align the first joint of one of
your fingers to the center of the sensor, press your finger parallel to the sensor
and slide it downward until it passes the fingerprint sensor area. To prevent
authentication failure due to difference in finger positions at registration and
authentication, keep your finger parallel to the terminal as you slide it.
･
If the sliding movement is too fast or too slow, the fingerprint may not be
correctly recognized.
･
Registration/Authentication of fingerprint may be difficult with your thumb as the
center of the whorl of the fingerprint may be displaced or distorted. Try as much
as possible to slide your finger so that the center of the whorl of the fingerprint
passes the center of the fingerprint sensor.
･
If the fingerprint was not correctly read, a warning message appears. If the
fingerprint was not authenticated within a certain period of time, a confirmation
message appears and the previous screen reappears.
･
If fingerprint registration or authentication is started with the finger put on the
fingerprint sensor, activation may be unavailable. Put the finger off from the
fingerprint sensor and retry the operation.
･
When connecting FOMA terminal using a USB cable to a device which requires
grounding such as a desktop PC, make sure that the device is grounded in
advance. If the connected device is not grounded, fingerprint authentication may
be unavailable. In this case, perform fingerprint authentication while touching a
metallic part (frame, external connector, etc.) of the connected device or after
disconnecting FOMA terminal from the device.
･
Fingerprint authentication technology does not guarantee complete identity
authentication or verification. Note that DOCOMO assumes no responsibility for
any damage caused by use of this product or unavailability of this product.
◆
Usage precautions for fingerprint sensor
･
The sheet on the fingerprint sensor is a protective film to maintain waterproofing.
Do not remove or poke the film with a pointed object such as a pen.
･
The surface of the fingerprint sensor is waterproof, however, a wet or dirty sensor
or finger, or a wrinkled finger may cause malfunction. Wipe any water or dust off
with a soft cloth before use.
･
The conditions below may cause failure or damage.
- Strike or give a hard shock
- Scratch or pick with a pointed object
- Rub hard with a fingernail or hard object (such as metal piece of strap) and scratch the surface
of the fingerprint sensor
- Scratch or stain the surface of the fingerprint sensor with soil etc.
- Cover with a sticker or paint with ink etc.
･
The conditions below may make fingerprint scanning difficult or reduce the
authentication performance. Clean the surface of the fingerprint sensor from time
to time.
- Dirt of dust, sebum, etc., attachment or condensation of moisture of sweat etc.
･
If any of the phenomena below occurs, clean the surface of the fingerprint sensor.
The phenomena may be improved.
- "Clean surface of sensor." appears
- Fingerprint registration or authentication fails often
･
To clean the fingerprint sensor, wipe its surface with a dry, soft and static-free
cloth. Long-term use may cause the fingerprint sensor to get dusty, but do not try
to remove the dust with a pointed object even in such a case.
･
Static electricity may cause malfunction. Before placing the finger on the
fingerprint sensor, eliminate static electricity by touching a metal object with the
hand etc. Take particular care in dry seasons such as winter.
