Preface
Ergonomics
We designed your Multimedia PC system to be functional as well as attractive. To get most out of it, here are
some suggestions on how to position and use the computer:
•
The top third of the LCD (screen) should be at eye-level or slightly below.
•
The LCD should be at least 18"/45cm. directly in front of you.
•
If the screen resolution makes you strain to read, then adjust the resolution to something more comfortable (see
).
•
Angle the LCD (see
“Tilting the LCD Screen” on page 1 - 6
) so that it doesn’t reflect any light into your eyes.
•
Use a chair which offers good back support (especially lower-back). The seat should allow your feet to rest flat on the
floor or on a footrest directly in front of you.
•
If possible, illuminate your work area with natural daylight or use a steady-glowing (non-flickering) light source.
•
Place the keyboard and mouse so that your arms are at your sides and your forearms are roughly parallel to the floor.
Your wrists should flex slightly downward as you work. Your neck and shoulders should also be relaxed.
•
Take a break from the computer. Get up, stretch, flex your wrists, walk about, and look at something else for about 10
minutes every hour.
