appropriate to your height.

place your hand over the keyboard while
sitting down on a chair.
Adjust the height of chair so that your heel
is comfortably placed on the oor.

Do not use the computer while you
are lying down, but only while you are
sitting down.
 Do not use the computer on your lap.
If the computer temperature increases,
there is a danger of burning yourself.
 Work while keeping your back straight.
 Use a chair with a comfortable back.
 Keep the center of your leg weight not
on the chair but on your feet when you
