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
The monitor offers the adjusting height, rake, and rotation possibility that
enable the monitor to be optimally adjusted for the respective user and the
respective situation.

as prolonged use of computer workstations can be tiring.

Back
Sit back in your chair and use the backrest.
ENGLISH
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 wrist pad.
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.
