Proper Posture
Adjust the heights of desks and chairs appropriate to
your height.
The heights are to be adjusted so that your arm forms a
right angle when you 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 floor.
■ 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 wrist 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 are sitting on a chair.
■ To use the computer while talking over the telephone,
use a headset. Using the computer with the phone on
your shoulder is bad for posture.
■ Keep frequently used items within a comfortable work
range (where you can reach them with your hands).
