CAUTION:
Before using this manual, it is important that you read and understand all the

Chapter 2. Arranging your workspace

To get the most from your computer, arrange both the equipment you use and
your work area to suit your needs and the kind of work you do. Your comfort is of
foremost importance, but light sources, air circulation, and the location of electrical
outlets can also affect the way you arrange your workspace.

Comfort

Although no single working position is ideal for everyone, here are a few
guidelines to help you find a position that suits you best.

Sitting in the same position for a long time can cause fatigue. The backrest and
seat of your chair should adjust independently and provide good support. The seat
should have a curved front to relieve pressure on the thighs. Adjust the seat so
that your thighs are parallel to the floor and your feet are either flat on the floor or
on a footrest.

When using the keyboard, keep your forearms parallel to the floor and your wrists
in a comfortable position. Use a light touch on the keyboard and your hands and
fingers relaxed. Change the angle of the keyboard for maximum comfort by
adjusting the position of the keyboard feet.

Viewing Distance

Adjust the monitor so the top of the screen is at, or slightly below, eye level. Place
the monitor at a comfortable viewing distance, usually 51 to 61 cm (20 to 24 in.),
and position it so you can view it without having to twist your body. Also,
position other equipment you use regularly, such as the telephone or a mouse,
within easy reach.

Glare and lighting

Position the monitor to minimize glare and reflections from overhead lights,
windows, and other light sources. Reflected light from shiny surfaces can cause
annoying reflections on your monitor screen. Place the monitor at right angles to
windows and other light sources, when possible. Reduce overhead lighting, if
necessary, by turning off lights or using lower wattage bulbs. If you install the
monitor near a window, use curtains or blinds to block the sunlight. You can adjust
the brightness and contrast controls on the monitor as the room lighting changes
throughout the day.

© Copyright Lenovo 2007, 2009 3

Where it is impossible to avoid reflections or to adjust the lighting, an antiglare
filter placed over the screen might be helpful. However, these filters might affect
the clarity of the image on the screen; try them only after you have exhausted
other methods of reducing glare.

Dust buildup compounds problems associated with glare. Remember to clean your
monitor screen periodically using a soft cloth moistened with a nonabrasive liquid
glass cleaner.

Air circulation

Your computer and monitor produce heat. The computer has a fan that pulls in
fresh air and forces out hot air. The monitor lets hot air escape through vents.
Blocking the air vents can cause overheating, which might result in a malfunction
or damage. Place the computer and monitor so that nothing blocks the air vents;
usually, 51 mm (2 in.) of air space is sufficient. Also, make sure the vented air is
not blowing on someone else.

Electrical outlets and cable lengths

The location of electrical outlets, the length of power cords and cables that connect
to the monitor, printer, and other devices might determine the final placement of
your computer.

When arranging your workspace:

v Avoid the use of extension cords. When possible, plug the computer power cord

directly into an electrical outlet.

v Keep power cords and cables neatly routed away from walkways and other

areas where they might get kicked accidentally.

more information about power cords, refer to the Safety and Warranty Guide

For
that was provided with your computer.

habits. For more information, see Chapter 2, “Arranging your workspace,” on page

3.

Connecting your computer

Use the following information when connecting your computer.

v Look for the small connector icons on the back of your computer. Match the

connectors to the icons.

v If your computer cables and connector panel have color-coded connectors, match

the color of the cable end with the color of the connector. For example, match a
blue cable end with a blue connector or a red cable end with a red connector.

Depending on your model type, your computer might not have all of the
