free). When the lock password is removed, all documents on the

To disable the screen lock
When the entry screen for the lock password is displayed, align
the center of the FeliCa card or (FeliCa mark) on the
FeliCa-compatible device with (N mark) on the Digital Paper

card/FeliCa-compatible device that is currently registered before
registering a different FeliCa card/FeliCa-compatible device.
