careful before touching the area.
Do not place any object near the air exhaust vent that may block the vent.
Hint
Your VAIO computer uses high-frequency radio signals and may cause interference to radio or TV
reception. If this occurs, move the computer a suitable distance away from the radio or TV.
Ergonomic considerations
Whenever possible, you should attempt to take account of the following ergonomic considerations.
Furniture and posture
Sit in a chair with good back support. Adjust the level of the chair so your feet are flat on the floor. A footrest
may make you more comfortable.
Sit in a relaxed, upright posture and avoid slouching forward or leaning far backwards.
Viewing angle of the computer screen
Use the screen tilting feature to find the best position. Make sure the computer screen is at or slightly below
eye level when you are sitting in front of your VAIO computer. Adjust the brightness level of the display as well.
You can reduce eye strain and muscle fatigue by adjusting the tilt and brightness level of the computer screen
to the proper position.
Lighting
Choose a location where windows and lights do not cause glare and reflection on the computer screen. Use
indirect lighting to avoid bright spots on the computer screen. Proper lighting adds to your comfort and work
efficiency.
Note
While adjusting the viewing angle, do not exert excessive pressure on your VAIO computer to eliminate a
risk of mechanical damage.
Hint
The same considerations apply when you use an external display.
Notes on handling your VAIO computer
