Using Your HP Multimedia Keyboard
WARNING Important Ergonomic Information
Improper and prolonged use of keyboards and input devices are among
those tasksassociated with repetitive strain injury (RSI) to soft tissue in the
hands and arms. If you do experience discomfort or pains while using any
computing equipment, discontinue use immediately and consult your
physician as soon as possible.
Your comfort and safety are our primary concern. Consequently, we
recommend you read HP’s ergonomic information before using your PC.
For detailed information, refer to HP’s online version of “Working in
Comfort” which is preloaded on your PC’s hard disk or visit HP’s Working
in Comfort Web site at: www.hp.com/ergo.A summary is provided in the
Comfort and Safety Checklist on page 6.
