Proper Setup and Placement Tips
It’s important that your computer be set up correctly and
according to your own comfort and ergonomic needs. The
following tips should make your workstation a comfortable
and healthy place:
Monitor Level.
Position your computer so that it is at arm’s
length away and the top third of the monitor viewing area is
at eye level. This helps prevent eye and neck strain. To further
reduce eye strain, close your eyes and refocus on something
other than your computer screen at least twice an hour. Most
monitors come standard with a detachable tilt-and-swivel base
and adjustable, rear-mounted foot, which allow you to position
the monitor exactly where you want it.
Your Seat.
If you plan to use your Acer computer for extended
periods (for example, in a home office environment), select a
highly adjustable office chair with a five-pronged base. The seat
and chair back should be adjustable, while you’re sitting in the
chair, for height and tilt, and forward/backward positioning, and
the lumbar area of the back should be supported by the chair
adjustments or a cushion. Arm rests should conform to your
elbow height and shoulder width and should be used for sup-
port. For maximum comfort, vary positions frequently through-
out the day. Use good posture when seated, keep your head
centered over your shoulders and, just like your mother always
told you, don’t slump over your work.
Anti-Glare Coating.
Some monitor screens are constructed
with a special anti-glare coating, which minimizes reflections that
cause eye strain and discomfort. To further reduce eye strain,
close your eyes and refocus on something other than your com-
puter screen at least twice an hour .
Task Lighting.
When room lighting is dimmed, there may
be insufficient light on documents or reference materials for
comfortable reading. A well-lit room or a few directional,
adjustable task lights will allow you to see your monitor screen
and other materials clearly, and with the least amount of strain.
Hand and Wrist.
Keep your wrists straight and your forearms
parallel to the floor while you are typing. If you use a wrist rest,
use it only briefly for resting. Do not rest your hands on the
table or on the wrist rest while you are typing. During long
periods of typing, frequent breaks are recommended.
