9
Work environment
Your Toshiba Pocket PC e830 has been designed to be
compact, light-weight and extremely portable, (and they
include a self-contained battery pack), so that they can be
easily carried and used almost anywhere.
Proper use of your Toshiba Pocket PC e830 does not pose any health
hazards. When used in accordance with the safety instructions that follow,
they also offer an alternative to Pocket PC users who wish to avoid exposure to the additional sources of electromagnetic field (EMF) emission
that may be present in Pocket PCs.
Ideally, your Toshiba Pocket PC e830 should always be used at a welldesigned work station so that your arms, shoulders, and hands are in natural and comfortable positions. This will minimize physical discomfort to
the back, neck, wrists, and other parts of the body. During normal use,
your forearms should be parallel to the floor, your wrists should be arched
comfortably upward (i.e., so that your hands are above your forearms);
your fingers should be gently curved downward, and your upper arms
should be hanging freely at your side. This will avoid physical discomfort.
Furthermore, you should ideally always be seated in front of your Toshiba
Pocket PC e830 in a comfortable chair that provides firm support for your
back, permitting your feet to be flat on the floor, your knees to be bent at
an angle of 90 degrees or more, and your thighs to be at an angle of 90
degrees or greater in relation to your torso. Since Toshiba Pocket PCs are
specifically intended to be used in the field, it is foreseeable that they will
not always be used at carefully designed and well illuminated work stations. Instead, they may often be used where lighting conditions are poor,
where viewing distances and angles are inconvenient, where they will be
subject to vibration or vehicle motion, where available seating conditions
may require awkward arm and wrist positions, and where adequate neck
and back support cannot be provided.
Furthermore, since the LCD is not detachable from the keyboard, conditions of use in the field may sometimes cause the LCD to be too low for
comfort (or the keyboard to be too high for comfort). As a result, opportunities may often exist for the misuse of your Toshiba Pocket PC e830
under adverse conditions, which could result in eyestrain and in physical
discomfort to various parts of the body.
The following safety instructions should always be followed to avoid the
adverse consequences that could otherwise result from the misuse of
your Toshiba Pocket PC e830 under sub optimum field conditions.
10
Prevention of eyestrain
Viewing angle and viewing distance of LCD
When using Pocket PCs, the operator is linked to the equipment through
the eyes as well as through the hands. Viewing angle and viewing distance are two of the controllable factors which significantly affect the ability of the eyes to focus easily on the LCD.
Viewing distances of less than 16 inches can cause eyestrain and headaches, both in persons with normal vision and in persons who must wear
corrective glasses or contact lenses. Consequently, viewing distances of
at least 16 inches must be maintained. Closer viewing distances will create stress both on the binocular (eye aiming) system and on the accommodating (eye-focusing) system.
Most persons also find it to be more restful on the eyes if the top line of
the LCD is located 20 degrees or more below eye-level, rather than
straight ahead or upward. In general, the closer the location of the LCD,
the lower it should be placed.
Always locate the LCD directly in front of you, at a comfortable viewing distance, always greater than 16 inches
both for persons with normal eyesight as well as for those
who wear corrective glasses or contact lenses.
Always ensure that the top line of the LCD is located at least 20 degrees
below eye-level.
Always tilt the top of the LCD away from you until you have located the
position that affords maximum visibility.
Always adjust the brightness and contrast controls to maximize the character and image quality on the LCD.
Ambient lighting
Adequate lighting increases work effectiveness and reduces eyestrain.
Sources of illumination should be selected that are located outside of the
peripheral field of vision, to minimize both direct and reflected disability
glare (i.e., glare that results in a reduction of the readability of the information displayed on the LCD), and discomfort glare (i.e., glare that produces
visual distraction).
Ambient illumination, comprised of general lighting and local (task) lighting, must be sufficiently bright, uniform, and free from both disability and
discomfort glare, or from flicker, to permit the use of your Toshiba Pocket
PC e830 without any noticeable visual impairment or eyestrain.
11
Always position your Toshiba Pocket PC e830 (in relation
to the available sources of light) so that direct glare or
reflected glare will be minimized at the LCD, in order to
maximize visibility.
If the room in which you are working has windows, use available blinds,
shades, or drapes to control the amount of direct or reflected light in the
room. Always locate your Toshiba Pocket PC e830 so that the side of the
unit faces the windows, in order to minimize direct, or reflected, glare on
the screen.
Always position the LCD between rows of overhead lights, if possible, to
avoid direct glare.
Always combine the available general and task lighting to best suit your
lighting needs, but avoid placing bright light sources within your field of
vision.
Always use indirect lighting where possible, in order to avoid bright spots
on the LCD.
Vision care
All new users of Toshiba Pocket PCs should have vision tests performed
before undertaking Pocket PC use, and all users should have vision tests
performed periodically thereafter to ensure that they have adequately corrected their vision (if necessary) to satisfactorily handle such work.
An association between bifocal use and vulnerability to neck disorders is
also known to exist. Bifocal use while operating your Toshiba Pocket PC
e830 may result in more head movements from keyboard to screen, a
backward declination of the head, and increased static loading of the neck
muscles, which could cause neck discomfort. The use of bifocals reportedly may also result in awkward postural adjustments which could cause
further discomfort to the body.
Consequently, all individuals who wear bifocals must have vision tests
performed before beginning Pocket PC work, and must be evaluated periodically by a vision-care specialist, to determine whether their current
lenses are appropriate for your Toshiba Pocket PC e830 work that they
will be performing.
Always have your eyes examined periodically by a vision
care specialist, to maintain good vision.
Always wear corrective glasses or contact lenses, where required, to minimize eyestrain when using the CRT monitor.
12
If you wear bifocals, always have vision tests performed before your first
use of your Toshiba Pocket PC e830, and then periodically thereafter, to
protect against eyestrain and possibly physical discomfort as well.
Always keep your glasses, contact lenses, and the LCD as clean as possible.
Always take frequent rest breaks, and relax the focusing system of the
eyes by looking at distant objects (objects located at a distance greater
than 15 feet).
If you experience vision-related problems, including (but not limited to)
eyestrain, irritation or pain, blurred or double vision, excessive tears or dry
eyes or excessive blinking or squinting, always consult a vision-care specialist to protect your eyesight.
Prevention of physical discomfort
When Toshiba Pocket PCs are to be used under the less-than ideal conditions that may sometimes be encountered in the field, prudent precautions must be taken to prevent physical discomfort to the body or to the
hands, wrists and arms. Physical discomfort can be avoided by taking frequent rest breaks and by periodically initiating changes in activity, environment or work-tempo.
Prevention of physical discomfort to the body
To prevent physical discomfort to the back, neck, shoulders and other
parts of the body, even while using your Toshiba Pocket PC e830 under
sub optimum field conditions, the following work practices should always
be observed:
Always avoid sitting in one position for long periods of
time, by periodically performing alternate tasks or by periodically moving to a different environment.
In order to avoid exposing the body to physical discomfort, always initiate
periodic changes in work-tempo and take periodic breaks when working
with your Toshiba Pocket PC e830 over an extended period of time.
Always avoid any awkward working positions that could cause discomfort
or stress to the back, neck, or shoulders.
Always take time to stretch and exercise your body periodically, throughout the workday, to avoid experiencing muscular and skeletal aches and
pains.
13
Prevention of physical discomfort to the hands,
wrists, and arms
To prevent physical discomfort to the hands, wrists, and arms, even while
using your Toshiba Pocket PC e830 under sub optimum field conditions,
the following work practices must always be observed:
Always avoid performing repetitive tasks with your hands
for long periods of time, either by taking periodic breaks
or by periodically engaging in other activities.
Always avoid working in uncomfortable positions that result in discomfort
or stress to either the hands, wrists, or arms.
Avoidance of exposure to electromagnetic field
(EMF) emissions
Extremely low frequency (ELF) emissions (50Hz (Europe) or
60Hz (US))
Since most Toshiba Pocket PCs are low-voltage direct
current (DC) devices, your Toshiba Pocket PC e830 emits
no EMF (Electro-Magnetic Field) energy in the ELF range
when it is being powered by its main battery pack.
Your Toshiba Pocket PC e830, however, can also be powered by an alternating current (AC) Adapter, which converts a 60 Hz AC power source to
DC.
When your Toshiba Pocket PC e830 is being powered by an AC Adapter,
the AC Adapter and its associated AC power cord may themselves emit
low levels of ELF energy. The intensity levels of those ELF emissions,
however, even in close proximity to the AC Adapter and its associated AC
power cord, is relatively low in comparison to those of other common
household appliances.
The minute levels of EMF energy in the ELF range that are emitted by the
AC Adapter and its AC power cord pose no known health hazards to
human beings.
14
Very low frequency (VLF) emissions (30,000Hz to 66,000Hz)
Since the LCD used in your Toshiba Pocket PC e830 for
the presentation of visual information is a flat-panel,
reflective device which requires no sweep-frequency,
your Toshiba Pocket PC e830 emits no EMF emissions in
the VLF range.
A cathode ray tube, on the other hand, is an emissive device that does
require the presence of a sweep-frequency in the 15,000 to 20,000 Hz
(VLF) range in order to perform its function.
Consequently, only desk-top computers which use cathode ray tube monitors for the presentation of visual information are emitters of EMF emissions in the VLF range.
Radio frequency (RF) emissions
All personal Pocket PCs generate digital timing pulses at
frequencies within the RF range, and consequently may
emit minute levels of stray EMF emissions in the RF
range.
As a result, all Pocket PCs have been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the US Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) Rules and also to comply with Canadian ICES-003 regulations as being “Class B” digital devices. (“Class B”
digital devices are authorized for use in residential environments and are
not permitted to intentionally emit RF energy. Nevertheless, they are permitted to unintentionally emit low levels of RF energy, as a result of the
generation of digital timing pulses by their clock oscillator circuits.)
The allowable levels of RF energy that may be emitted by Toshiba Pocket
PCs are severely limited in their intensity by existing FCC Regulations (47
CFR Section 15.109(a)) and ICES-003 to prevent interference with reception on nearby radio and TV receivers.
Toshiba Pocket PCs have therefore been equipped with internal shielding
to significantly reduce the stray emission of RF energy.
Nevertheless, airlines may prohibit the use of Toshiba Pocket PCs (as
well as other portable electronic devices that could emit stray RF energy)
during take-offs and landings, because of possible interference with the
reception of signals by airborne electronic navigation devices.
For instance, because FCC and ICES regulations for “Class B” digital
devices severely limit the levels of RF energy that may be emitted by a
Toshiba Pocket PC, the resulting emissions also fall well within the allowable limits that have been adopted by OSHA in 29 CFR § 1910.97, and
15
that have been adopted by the promulgators of all other known regulations and standards that relate to the emission of EMF energy in the RF
range.
Consequently, the minute levels of EMF energy in the RF range that are
emitted by Toshiba Pocket PCs comply with all existing regulations and
standards, and pose no known health hazards to human beings.
