If you experience any problems with the keyboard missing key strokes or erratic behavior of
the mouse, you may need to re-position your equipment. Try moving the receiver at least 8
inches away from other electrical devices. Interference issues can also be resolved by moving
the mouse closer to the receiver.
Health Warning
Use of a keyboard or pointing device may be linked to serious injuries or disorders.
When using a computer, as with many activities, you may experience occasional discomfort in
your hands, arms, shoulders, neck or other parts of your body. However, if you experience
symptoms such as persistent or recurring discomfort, pain, throbbing, aching, tingling, numbness,
burning sensation or stiffness, DO NOT IGNORE THESE WARNING SIGNS. PROMPTLY
SEE A QUALIFIED HEALTH PROFESSIONAL, even if symptoms occur when you are not
working at your computer. Symptoms such as these can be associated with painful and
sometimes permanently disabling injuries or disorders of the nerves, muscles, tendons or other
parts of the body. These musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) include carpal tunnel syndrome,
tendonitis, tenosynovitis and other conditions.
While researchers are not yet able to answer many questions about MSDs, there is a general
agreement that many factors may be linked to their occurrence, including: medical and physical
conditions, stress and how one copes with it, overall health and how a person positions and uses
his or her body during work and other activities (including use of a keyboard or pointing device).
Some studies suggest that the amount of time a person uses a keyboard may also be a factor. For
guidelines that may help you work more comfortably with your computer and possibly reduce
your risk of experiencing an MSD, consult a local physician.
If you have any questions about how your own lifestyle, activities or medical or physical
condition may be related to MSDs, see a qualified health professional.
