Workplace Preparation
This section gives advice on
what you should consider
before you set up your monitor.
Height
Position the monitor so that the top of the screen is slightly below your eye
level when you sit at your workstation.
Orientation
Choose a position that gives the least reflection from lights and windows,
usually at a right angle to any windows. Position the monitor directly in front of
you so that you do not have to twist your body to use it. Tilt the monitor to a
comfortable viewing angle.
Adjusting the Monitor Position
You can tilt the screen backward and forward as shown below.
Working Practices
This section gives
advice on how you can
work comfortably and reduce
fatigue.
Rest
Take regular breaks. Vary your posture, stand up and stretch occasionally as
prolonged use of computer workstations can be tiring.

DEUTSCH ENGLISHFRANÇAISESPAÑOLITALIANOJAPANESECOMPL & WARR
Back
Sit back in your chair and use the backrest.
Hands
Adjust the seat height so that your forearms are approximately horizontal and
your wrists are straight when using the keyboard. Your upper arms should be
relaxed with your elbows near your body.
Use a light touch on the keyboard, keeping your hands and fingers relaxed.
Allow a space in front of the keyboard to rest your wrists when not typing.
Consider using a wristpad.
Eyesight
Working with monitors, in common with any prolonged close work, can be
visually demanding. Look away from the screen periodically and have your
eyesight checked regularly.
Screen settings
Set the screen brightness and contrast to a comfortable level. You may have
to adjust this as the lighting changes during the day. Many application
programs let you select color combinations which can help you to view in
comfort. See the User controls section on page 15 for more information.
Caring for your Monitor
Be sure to turn off the power before you perform any maintenance on the
monitor. Clean your monitor as follows:
• Gently wipe the device covers and the screen with a soft cloth.
• Remove finger marks and grease with a damp cloth and mild detergent;
do not use solvents or abrasives.
• Never use flammable cleaning material to clean your IBM monitor or any
other electrical apparatus.

Auto Setup
Auto Setup
The Setup Utility
included on the installation
CD is for displaying dot patterns.
They do not replace or modify the
display driver.
The Auto Setup instructions
require the monitor to be warmed
up for 15 minutes. This is not
required for normal operation.
By pressing the Auto key, you will
have direct access to Auto
Adjustment.
When you first use your monitor you must perform Auto Setup. This
procedure sets up your monitor to process the video signals from your
computer without image discoloration or smearing. After you perform Auto
Setup, the settings are stored and used each time you turn on the monitor.
To optimise the displayed image a set-up utility is provided on the CD.
Operation of the utility is dependent on the operating system on your
computer. For correct operation locate the operating system on your
computer from the table below and follow the appropriate instructions. You
can choose to run AUTO SETUP for each operating system that you use. This
means that if you sometimes use your monitor while running any version of
Windows and sometimes also use it from within DOS (not a DOS window),
you must run AUTO SETUP for both Windows and DOS. You can run versions of
AUTO SETUP in any order.
Before you begin AUTO SETUP for your computer:
1. Make sure the computer’s video mode is set in the range of the
supported screen resolution shown in the Table on page 21.
The
AUTO SETUP
process
only applies to the current
screen mode. When a new mode
is selected, repeat this section to
reset the monitor.
You should perform AUTO SETUP for each screen mode you use.
