WORKING IN COMFORT
 Take regular breaks from the work at your
screen to prevent tenseness and exhaustion.
Sitting in one position for long periods can be uncomfortable.
To minimize the potential for physical discomfort or injury,
it’s important that you maintain proper posture.
• Overall: Change your position frequently and take regu-
lar breaks to avoid fatigue.
• Back: While sitting at your work surface, make sure
your back is supported by the chair’s backrest in erect
position or angled slightly backwards.
• Legs: Your thighs should be horizontal or angled
slightly downward. Your lower legs should be near a right
angle to your thighs. Your feet should rest flat on the
floor. If necessary, use a footrest, but double check that
you have your seat height adjusted correctly before getting a footrest.
• Arms: Your arms should be relaxed and loose, elbows
close to your sides, with forearms and hands approximately parallel to the floor.
• Wrists: Your wrists should be as straight as possible
while using the keyboard, mouse or trackball. They
should not be bent sideways, or more than 10 degrees up
or down.
• Head: Your head should be upright or tilted slightly
forward. Avoid working with your head or trunk twisted.

SET-UP LOCATION
• Keep your PC and all units connected to it away from
moisture, dust, heat and direct sunlight. Failure to
observe these instructions can lead to malfunctions or
damage to the PC.
• To prevent damage to your PC from a fall, place and op-
erate the PC and all connected units on a stable, bal-
anced and vibration-free surface.
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE
• The PC can be operated at an ambient temperature of
between 10° C and 35° C (+41° and +95° F) and at a relative humidity of between 30% and 70% (without condensation).
• When powered off, the PC can be stored at temperatures
between -20° C and 50° C (–40° and +158° F).
• To provide additional protection against electric
shock, power surges, lightning strikes, or other elec-
trical damage to your PC, we recommend the use of a
surge protector.
• Wait until the PC has reached ambient (room) tempera-
ture before turning it on or connecting it to the power
adapter. Drastic variations in temperature and humid-
ity can create condensation within the PC and may cause
it to short-circuit.
