Setting Up an Appropriate Work Environment
This topic describes where to or not to place your VAIO computer and ergonomic instructions.
Where to place your VAIO computer
When placing your VAIO computer, ensure that:
You have easy access to a power source and necessary ports.
You leave enough space around the computer.
The computer is placed on a flat surface that is wide enough and you can face the computer screen as you operate it.
You can place the computer in front of you where you can sit upright and keep your forearms parallel to the floor.
Where not to place your VAIO computer
Placing your VAIO computer in an inappropriate location may cause damage or a malfunction. Do not place the
computer in a location subject to:
Direct sunlight
Magnetic items or sources
Heat sources, such as residential heating equipment
Excessive dust
High humidity
Poor ventilation
Note
The area around the air exhaust vent may become extremely hot while your VAIO computer is on. Be careful before
touching the area.
Do not place any object near the air exhaust vent that may block the vent.
Hint
Your VAIO computer uses high-frequency radio signals and may cause interference to radio or TV reception. If this
occurs, move the computer a suitable distance away from the radio or TV.

Ergonomic considerations

Whenever possible, you should attempt to take account of the following ergonomic considerations.
Furniture and posture
Sit in a chair with good back support. Adjust the level of the chair so your feet are flat on the floor. A footrest may make
you more comfortable.
Sit in a relaxed, upright posture and avoid slouching forward or leaning far backwards.
