Using the ngerprint reader
Depending on the options you ordered, your computer might have an integrated ngerprint reader. By
enrolling your ngerprint and associating it with a power-on password, a hard disk password, or both
passwords beforehand, you can start the computer, log on to the system, and enter the ThinkPad Setup by
swiping your nger over the reader, without typing a password. Thus ngerprint authentication can replace
passwords and enable simple and secure user access.
Enrolling your ngerprint
1. Turn on your computer.
2. To start Lenovo Fingerprint software, refer to “Lenovo programs” on page 15.
3. Follow the instructions on the screen to enroll your ngerprint. For details, refer to the Help for the
program.
