❖
When using the product at airports, on airplanes or trains, or at meetings,
make sure that you take the time to consider the points just mentioned.
❖
When working on the road it may be difficult to set up the product in an
optimal position. In these situations it is important that you take frequent
breaks and change your posture frequently to relieve the excess loads on
your body.
❖
Be creative, when in a hotel room, use a rolled up blanket or pillows to
provide back support, or to provide arm support. To position the product
at a good height, remember to operate the product on a hard flat stable
surface. Using your product on a carpet, blanket or other soft materials can
block the air vents including those located at the base of the product and
possibly cause overheating of your product (See "Provide adequate
ventilation" section in this Instruction Manual for Safety and Comfort).

Transporting the product

Carrying your product for a long time may lead to shoulder and arm fatigue. If
you carry your product with other items, consider using an ergonomically-
designed computer case.

Seeking additional help

Follow the advice from your company health and safety staff. Contact them if
you need assistance making adjustment to your workstation or adjusting the
lighting.
Again, if you experience persistent or recurrent pain, ache, numbness, burning,
or stiffness you should promptly see a qualified health care provider. These
sensations may be caused by serious medical conditions that can be treated.
