Comfort and accessibility
Good ergonomic practice is important to get the most from your personal
computer and to avoid discomfort. Arrange your workplace and the equipment
you use to suit your individual needs and the kind of work that you perform. In
addition, use healthy work habits to maximize your performance and comfort
while using your computer.
For more detailed information on any of these topics, visit the Healthy Computing
Web site at: http://www.lenovo.com/healthycomputing/
Arranging your work area
Use a work surface of appropriate height and space to allow you
to work in
comfort.
Organize your work area to match the way you use materials and equipment.
Keep your work area clean and clear for the materials that you typically use and
place the items that you use most frequently, such as the computer mouse or
telephone, within the easiest reach.
Equipment layout and setup play a large role in your working posture. The
following topics describe how to optimize equipment setup to achieve and
maintain good working posture.
Positioning your monitor
Position and adjust your computer monitor for comfortable viewing by considering
the following items:
v Viewing distance: Optimal viewing distances for monitors range from
approximately 510 mm to 760 mm (20 in to 30 in) and can vary depending on
ambient light and time of day. You can achieve different viewing distances by
repositioning your monitor or by modifying your posture or chair position. Use
a viewing distance that is most comfortable for you.
v Monitor height: Position the monitor so your head and neck are in a
comfortable and neutral (vertical, or upright) position. If your monitor does not
have height adjustments, you might have to place books or other sturdy objects
under the base of the monitor to achieve the desired height. A general guideline
is to position the monitor such that the top of the screen is at or slightly below
your eye-height when you are comfortably seated. However, be sure to optimize
your monitor height so the line of site between your eyes and the center the
monitor suits your preferences for visual distance and comfortable viewing
when your eye muscles are in a relaxed state.
v Tilt: Adjust the tilt of your monitor to optimize the appearance of the screen
content and to accommodate your preferred head and neck posture.
v General location: Position your monitor to avoid glare or reflections on the
screen from overhead lighting or nearby windows.
The following are some other tips for comfortable viewing of your monitor:
