Appendix: Tips for Scanning Fingerprint

Recommended Finger
Forefinger, middle finger or the third finger.

Correct Scanning
The figure displayed below is the correct way to scan your finger: You should press your finger on the scanner horizontally. The center of your scanned finger should align with the scanner center.

Incorrect Scanning
The figures of scanning fingerprint displayed below are wrong:

Vertical Edge I Side Edge II Environment
The scanner should avoid direct high light, high temperature, humid conditions and rain.
When it is dry, the scanner may not recognize your fingerprint successfully. You can blow your finger and scan again.

Others
If your fingerprint is shallow, or it is hard to scan your fingerprint, we recommend you to use other authentication methods.
If you have injuries on the scanned finger, the scanner may not recognize. You can change another finger and try again.
