Appendix A

Ergonomics

This chapter provides guidance and hints to help you work in
a comfortable and ergonomically low-risk environment. If you
experience pain or discomfort while using this or any other
equipment, you should stop working and review this chapter.
If the discomfort continues, stop using the equipment and
consult a doctor as soon as possible.

Setting up and using equipment

Some people experience physical discomfort while using
computers. Sometimes this discomfort leads to Repetitive
Strain Injury (RSI), also known as cumulative trauma
disorder or repetitive motion injury. Setting up and using
equipment properly can help minimize this discomfort.
Well-designed and adjusted equipment may not be suffi-
cient to eliminate all potential problems. How you perform
your computer activities is also important.
