Remove static electricity from your fingers by touching any metal
surface. Static electricity is a common cause of sensor failures,
especially when the weather is dry.
Clean the sensor with a lint-free cloth. Do not use detergent or any
other chemicals to clean the sensor.
Avoid the following finger conditions for enrollment or recognition as
they might result in fingerprint enrollment errors or a drop in the
fingerprint recognition success rate
Soaked or swollen finger, for example as might occur after taking
a bath.
Injured finger
Wet finger
Soiled or oily finger
Extremely dry skin condition on finger
Observe the following to improve the fingerprint recognition success rate.
Enroll two or more fingers.
Enroll additional fingers if a recognition failure often occurs when using
already enrolled fingers.
Check the condition of your finger. Any conditions which have
changed since enrollment, such as injury, rough skin, and extremely
dry, wet, soiled, dirty, oily, soaked or swollen fingers, might lower the
recognition success rate. Also if the fingerprint is worn down or the
finger becomes thinner or fatter, the recognition success rate might be
lowered.
As the fingerprint for each finger is different and unique you should
ensure that only the registered or enrolled fingerprint or fingerprints
are used for identification.
The fingerprint sensor compares and analyzes the unique
characteristics in a fingerprint. However, there might be instances
where certain users are unable to register their fingerprints due to
insufficient unique characteristics in their fingerprints.
The recognition success rate might differ from user to user.
