Use of a keyboard or pointing device may be linked to serious injuries or disorders. When using a computer, as with many activities, you may experience occasional

discomfort in your hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of your body. However, if you experience symptoms such as persistent or recurring discomfort, pain, throbbing, aching, tingling, numbness, burning sensation, or stiffness, DO NOT IGNORE

THESE WARNING SIGNS. PROMPTLY SEE A QUALIFIED HEALTH PROFESSIONAL, even if symptoms occur when you are not working at your computer.

Symptoms such as these can be associated with painful and sometimes permanently disabling injuries or disorders of the nerves, muscles, tendons, or other parts of the body. These musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) include carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis, tenosynovitis, and other conditions.

While researchers are not yet able to answer many questions about MSDs, there is general agreement that many factors may be linked to their occurrence, including: medical and physical conditions, stress and how one copes with it, overall health, and how a person positions and uses his or her body during work and other activities (including use of a keyboard or pointing device). Some studies suggest that the amount of time a person uses a keyboard may also be a factor. Some guidelines that may help you work more comfortably with your computer and possibly reduce your risk of experiencing an MSD can be found in the “Healthy Computing Guide” topic of the User’s Guide, provided with the software program on your CD-ROM. If you do not have the CD-ROM for this product, you can access the “Healthy Computing Guide” from http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/, or (in the United States only) call 1-800-360-7561 to request a CD-ROM at no charge. If you have questions about how your own lifestyle, activities, or medical or physical condition may be related to MSDs, see a qualified health professional.

For optimum performance, position the receiver so that it is at least 8 inches away from the pointing device and any items that might cause interference, such as computer monitors, large metal objects (including computer cases and metal furniture), desktop fans, or fluorescent lights.

The pointing device may work up to six feet away from the receiver, but this distance varies depending on positioning, nearby items causing interference, and other factors.
