Positioning the monitor

Once your monitor is in place, either on top of your computer or next to it
on a desk or table, follow these steps:

1

Place the monitor so that the screen faces the user.

2

To slide the monitor, lift the front up slightly and push or pull in the direction you want.

3

Adjust the viewing angle of the monitor by tilting it up or down and turning it left or right

on its stand.

Position the monitor so that when you use it, no bright light is behind the
monitor or reflected on the screen. Your eyes should be about level with the
top edge of the screen and between 18 and 28 inches (45 to 70 cm) away. Take
occasional breaks when using your computer, to focus your eyes on a distant
object.

For your greatest comfort, use the following illustration to help you in
positioning your monitor.
