Before Use
ENERGY STAR
As an ENERGY STAR Partner, Sony has determined that this product meets the ENERGY STAR guidelines for energy efficiency. [. . . ] Fingerprint registration may fail if you move your finger too fast or too slow. Let the fingerprint sensor take about one second to scan your fingerprint. You may not be able to register and/or have your fingerprint(s) recognized if your finger is excessively dry or wet, wrinkled, injured, dirty, etc. Register more than one fingerprint in case that the fingerprint sensor fails to recognize the fingerprint. Note that up to 21 fingerprints can be registered for logging onto your system using the Power-on Security feature. Be sure to clean your fingertip(s) and the fingerprint sensor before swiping in order to keep good recognition performance.

Logging Onto Your System
To use the fingerprint authentication function in place of password entry to log onto your system, you need to set the poweron and Windows passwords and configure your computer for fingerprint authentication. For setting the power-on and Windows passwords, see Setting the Password (page 94). For detailed information, see the help file included with the Protector Suite QL.
Logging onto Windows
If you have registered your fingerprints for your user account, you can substitute fingerprint authentication for Windows password entry. To log onto Windows, swipe the registered finger across the fingerprint sensor when the Windows log-on screen appears.
Power-on Security feature
If you have set the power-on password (page 94), you can substitute fingerprint authentication for password entry when starting your computer.

!You may not be able to use the Password Bank feature depending on the web site you access.
