None
: No lock screen is enabled so the screen will never be locked from
use.
Swipe
: A swipe motion in any direction on the touchscreen will unlock
the screen.
Face Unlock
: Unlocks the screen using face recognition. Keep in mind
that Face Unlock is less secure than a pattern, PIN or password because
it uses generalized shape and dimension to verify your face.
Pattern
: Unlocks the screen using a pattern you draw with your finger.
The first time you set an unlock pattern, you will see a tutorial with
instructions on how to create it. Read the tutorial and touch the
Next
button. Draw your pattern (connect at least 4 dots) and touch the
Continue
button. Then redraw your pattern and touch the
Confirm
button.
PIN
Unlocks the screen with a number sequence. Enter a PIN (at least
4 digits) and touch the Continue button. Reenter your PIN and touch the
OK button to confirm it.
Password
Unlocks the screen with an alphanumeric sequence. Enter a
password (at least 4 characters) and touch the
Continue
button. Reenter
your password and touch the
OK
button to confirm it.
NOTE
Follow the on-screen instructions to create a backup PIN number in case you forget your
pattern.
