Proper posture when using your Desktop PC
When using your Desktop PC, maintaining the proper posture is necessary to prevent strain to
your wrists, hands, and other joints or muscles. This section provides you with tips on avoiding
physical discomfort and possible injury while using and fully enjoying your Desktop PC.
To maintain the proper posture:
• Position your computer chair to make sure that your elbows are at or slightly above the
keyboard to get a comfortable typing position.
• Adjust the height of your chair to make sure that your knees are slightly higher than
your hips to relax the backs of your thighs. If necessary, use a footrest to raise the level
of your knees.
• Adjust the back of your chair so that the base of your spine is rmly supported and
angled slightly backward.
• Sit upright with your knees, elbows and hips at an approximately 90º angle when you
are at the PC.
• Place the monitor directly in front of you, and turn the top of the monitor screen even
with your eye level so that your eyes look slightly downward.
• Keep the mouse close to the keyboard, and if necessary, use a wrist rest for support to
reduce the pressure on your wrists while typing.
• Use your Desktop PC in a comfortably-lit area, and keep it away from sources of glare
such as windows and straight sunlight.
• Take regular mini-breaks from using your Desktop PC.

Erklæring fra Den Føderale Kommunikationskommission (FCC)
Dette apparat opfylder FCC reglernes afsnit 15. Driften sker på følgende to betingelser:
• Dette apparat må ikke forårsage skadelig interferens, og
• Dette apparat skal acceptere enhver modtagen interferens, inklusive interferens, som
kan forårsage uønsket drift.
Dette udstyr er testet og fundet at opfylde grænserne for klasse B digitalt udstyr i henhold
til FCC reglernes afsnit 15. Disse grænser har til formål at skabe rimelige beskyttelse mod
skadelig interferens i private installationer. Dette udstyr skaber, bruger og kan udstråle
radiofrekvensenergi, som, hvis det ikke installeres og bruges i overensstemmelse med
fabrikantens instruktioner, kan forårsage skadelig interferens på radiokommunikation. Der er
imidlertid ingen garanti for, at der ikke vil opstå interferens i en given installation. Hvis dette
udstyr forårsager skadelig interferens på radio- og fjernsynsmodtagelse, hvilket kan afgøres
ved at slå udstyret til og fra, skal brugeren prøve at afhjælpe interferensen på en eller ere af
følgende måder:
• Ret modtagerantennen i en anden retning eller anbring den et andet sted.
• Øg afstanden mellem udstyret og modtageren.
• Forbind udstyret til en anden kontakt i et andet kredsløb end det, modtageren er
forbundet til.
• Bed forhandleren eller en erfaren radio- eller TV-teknikner om hjælp.
DANSK
Brugen af skærmet type netledning er påkrævet for at kunne opfylde FCC grænseværdier
for udstråling og for at forhindre interferens til tætliggende radio og fjernsynsmodtagelse.
Det er essentielt, at kun den medfølgende netledning bliver brugt. Brug kun skærmet
kabel til at forbinde I/O enheder til dette udstyr. Du er advaret om, at ændringer eller
modikationer, der ikke udtrykkeligt er godkendt af den myndighed, der er ansvarlig for
opfyldelse, kan ødelægge din autorisation til at bruge udstyret.
