HEALTH WARNING
Use of a keyboard or mouse 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 like
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 general agreement
that many factors may be linked to their occurrence, including: overall health, stress and how one copes
with it, medical and physical conditions, and how a person positions and uses his or her body during work
and other activities (including use of a keyboard or mouse). The amount of time a person performs an
activity may also be a factor.
Some guidelines that may help you work more comfortably with your computer and possibly reduce your
risk of experiencing an MSD can be found in the “Healthy Computer Guide” installed with this device’s
software. If this device did not come with software, see the “Healthy Computing Guide” section of the
“Getting Started” manual. You can also access the “Healthy Computing Guide” at www.microsoft.com/
hardware or (in the United States only) by calling 1 (800) 360 7561 to request a CD at no charge.
If you have questions about how your own lifestyle, activities, or medical or physical condition may be
related to MSDs, see a qualied health professional.
