1. Before-Use Information

1.1 GUIDANCE AND WARNINGS:

We are confident that you will quickly notice the benefit of using a Maltron keyboard, which is
specifically designed with ergonomic considerations to ensure ease and comfort in its
operation.

However, it is important that the keyboard is used in a suitable context, with regard to the
position and set up of the workstation and the general environment in which the keyboard will
be used. It is advised that an occupational health professional carries out a full workstation risk
assessment.

Always follow guidelines for using computer equipment from the Health & Safety
Executive http://www.hse.gov.uk/toolbox/workplace/designing.htm .

If you begin to feel any symptoms of a possible strain injury, visit your doctor as soon as
possible.

As a single hand user please be aware of increased risks of Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI) or
other related physical conditions. Although your Maltron keyboard has been ergonomically
designed to ensure maximum comfort levels it is important plenty of breaks are taken to avoid
overuse. Over the 35 years our keyboards have been in use, we have reports of users gaining
increased movement and significantly higher comfort levels while using a Maltron keyboard.
