Tips and information for comfortable use

Computer users may complain of eyestrain and headaches after prolonged use. Users are also at risk of physical injury after long hours of working in front of a computer. Long work periods, bad posture, poor work habits, stress, inadequate working conditions, personal health and other factors greatly increase the risk of physical injury.

Incorrect computer usage may lead to carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis, tenosynovitis or other musculoskeletal disorders. The following symptoms may appear in the hands, wrists, arms, shoulders, neck or back:

•Numbness, or a burning or tingling sensation.

•Aching, soreness or tenderness.

•Pain, swelling or throbbing.

•Stiffness or tightness.

•Coldness or weakness.

If you have these symptoms, or any other recurring or persistent discomfort and/or pain related to computer use, consult a physician immediately and inform your company's health and safety department.

The following section provides tips for more comfortable computer use.

Finding your comfort zone

Find your comfort zone by adjusting the viewing angle of the monitor, using a footrest, or raising your sitting height to achieve maximum comfort. Observe the following tips:

•Refrain from staying too long in one fixed posture.

•Avoid slouching forward and/or leaning backward.

•Stand up and walk around regularly to remove the strain on your leg muscles.

•Take short rests to relax your neck and shoulders.

•Avoid tensing your muscles or shrugging your shoulders.

•Install the external display, keyboard and mouse properly and within comfortable reach.

•If you view your monitor more than your documents, place the display at the center of your desk to minimize neck strain.

viii

Taking care of your vision

Long viewing hours, wearing incorrect glasses or contact lenses, glare, excessive room lighting, poorly focused screens, very small typefaces and low-contrast displays could stress your eyes. The following sections provide suggestions on how to reduce eyestrain.

Eyes

•Rest your eyes frequently.

•Give your eyes regular breaks by looking away from the monitor and focusing on a distant point.

•Blink frequently to keep your eyes from drying out.

Display

•Keep your display clean.

•Keep your head at a higher level than the top edge of the display so your eyes point downward when looking at the middle of the display.

•Adjust the display brightness and/or contrast to a comfortable level for enhanced text readability and graphics clarity.

•Eliminate glare and reflections by:

•Placing your display in such a way that the side faces the window or any light source.

•Minimizing room light by using drapes, shades or blinds.

•Using a task light.

•Changing the display's viewing angle.

•Using a glare-reduction filter.

•Using a display visor, such as a piece of cardboard extended from the display's top front edge.

•Avoid adjusting your display to an awkward viewing angle.

•Avoid looking at bright light sources, such as open windows, for extended periods of time.

Developing good work habits

Develop the following work habits to make your computer use more relaxing and productive:

•Take short breaks regularly and often.

•Perform some stretching exercises.

•Breathe fresh air as often as possible.

•Exercise regularly and maintain a healthy body.

Warning! We do not recommend using the computer on a couch or bed. If this is unavoidable, work for only short periods, take breaks regularly, and do some stretching exercises.

Frequently asked questions

The following questions are possible situations that may arise during the use of your computer and each is followed by easy answers and solutions to the situation.

Q: I pressed the power switch but the system did not boot up.

A: Check the LED located above the power switch.

If the LED is not lit, no power is being applied to the system. Do any of the following:

•Check if the voltage selector switch located on the rear panel of the computer is set to the correct voltage.

•Check if you plugged the power cable properly into an electrical outlet.

•If you are using a power strip or AVR, make sure that it is plugged in and turned on.

If the LED is lit, check the following:

•Is a non-bootable (non-system) diskette in the floppy drive? If yes, remove or replace it with a system diskette and press Ctrl + Alt + Del to restart your computer.

•The operating system files may be damaged or missing. Insert the start-up disk you created during Windows setup into the floppy drive and press Ctrl + Alt + Del to restart your computer. This will automatically diagnose your system and make necessary fixes. However, if the diagnostic utility still reports a problem, then you may have to perform the recovery process to restore your system to its original default factory settings.

Note: For more information about recovering your system, refers to the RCD instruction sheet.

Q: Nothing appears on the screen.

A: Your computer's power management function automatically blanks the screen to save power. Just press any key to turn the display back on.

If pressing a key does not work, you can restart your computer. If restarting your computer does not work, contact your dealer or the technical support center for assistance.

7

Q: The printer does not work.

A: Do the following:

•Make sure that the printer is connected to a power outlet and that it is turned on.

•Make sure that the printer cable is connected securely to the system's parallel port and the corresponding port on the printer.

•For additional information concerning the printer, refer to the printer's documentation.

Q: No sound comes out from the computer.

A: Check the following:

•The volume may be muted. Look for the Volume icon on the taskbar. If it is crossed-out, click on the icon and deselect the Mute option. You can also press the volume control/mute knob on your USB keyboard to toggle from mute to sound on.

•If headphones, earphones, or external speakers are connected to the line-out jack of your computer, the internal or built-in speakers are automatically turned off.

Q: System cannot read diskette, hard disk, CD or DVD information.

A: Check the following:

•Make sure that you are using the correct type of disk.

•Make sure the CD or DVD is inserted into the drive correctly.

•Check if the CD or DVD is clean and not scratched.

•Check your drive by using a good (i.e., undamaged) disk. If your drive cannot read the information on the good disc there may be a problem with the drive. Contact your dealer or technical support center for assistance.

Q: System cannot write data on the hard disk or writeable/re-writeable disk.
