Chapter 2. Adjusting and using your monitor

This section will give you information on adjusting and using your monitor.

Comfort and accessibility

Good ergonomic practice is important to get the most from your personal computer

and to avoid discomfort. Arrange your workplace and the equipment you use to suit

your individual needs and the kind of work that you perform. In addition, use healthy

work habits to maximize your performance and comfort while using your computer.

For more detailed information on any of these topics, visit the Healthy Computing Web

site at: http://www.lenovo.com/healthycomputing

Arranging your work area

Use a work surface of appropriate height and available working area to allow you to

work in comfort.

Organize you work area to match the way you use materials and equipment. Keep your

work area clean and clear for the materials that you typically use and place the items

that you use most frequently, such as the computer mouse or telephone, within the

easiest reach.

Equipment layout and setup play a large role in your working posture. The following

topics describe how to optimize equipment setup to achieve and maintain good

working posture.

Positioning and viewing your monitor

Position and adjust your computer monitor for comfortable viewing by considering the

following items:

•

Viewing distance: Optimal viewing distances for monitors range from approximately

510mm to 760mm (20 in to 30 in) and can vary depending on ambient light and time

of day. You can achieve different viewing distances by repositioning your monitor

or by modifying your posture or chair position. Use a viewing distance that is most

comfortable for you.

•

Monitor height: Position the monitor so your head and neck are in a comfortable

and neutral (vertical, or upright) position. If your monitor does not have height

adjustments, you have to place books or other sturdy objects under the base of

the monitor to achieve the desired height. A general guideline is to position the

monitor such that the top of the screen is lightly below your eye-height when you are

comfortably seated. However, be sure to optimize your monitor height so the line of

site between your eyes and the center the monitor suits your preferences for visual

distance and comfortable viewing when your eye muscles are in a relaxed stated.

•

Tilt: Adjust the tilt of your monitor to optimize the appearance of the screen content

and to accommodate your preferred head and neck posture.

•

General location: Position your monitor to avoid glare or reflections on the screen

from overhead lighting or nearby windows.

2-1

The following are some other tips for comfortable viewing of your monitor:

•

Use adequate lighting for the type of work you are performing.

•

Use the monitor brightness, contrast, and image adjustment controls, if equipped, to

optimize the image on your screen to meet your visual preferences.

•

Keep your monitor screen clean so you can focus on the screen’s contents.

Any concentrated and sustained visual activity can be tiring for your eyes. Be sure to

periodically look away from your monitor screen and focus on a far object to allow your

eye muscles to relax. If you have questions on eye fatigue or visual discomfort, consult

a vision care specialist for advice.

Quick tips for healthy work habits

The following information is the summary of some important factors to consider to help

you remain comfortable and productive when you use computer.

•

Good posture starts with equipment setup: The layout of your work area and the

setup of your computer equipment have a large effect on your posture when using

your computer. Be sure to optimize the position and orientation of your equipment

by following the tips outlined in “Arranging your work area” on page 2-1 so you can

maintain a comfortable and productive posture. Also, be sure to use the adjustment

capabilities of your computer components and office furniture to best suit your

preferences now and as your preferences change over time.

•

Minor changes in posture can help avoid discomfort: The longer you sit and

work in front of your computer, the more important it is to observe your working

posture. Avoid as summing any one posture for an extended period of time.

Periodically make minor modifications in your posture to help deter any discomforts

that might arise. Make use of any adjustments that your office furniture or equipment

provide to accommodate changes in posture

•

Short, periodic breaks help ensure healthy computing: Because computing is

primarily a static activity, it is particularly important to take short breaks from your

work. Periodically, stand up from your work area, stretch, walk for a drink of water,

or otherwise take a short break from using your computer. A short break from work

gives your body a welcome change in posture and helps to ensure you remain

comfortable and productive while you do work.
