This section will give you information on adjusting and using your monitor.
Comfort and accessibility
Good ergonomic practice is important to get the most from your personal computer 
and to avoid discomfort. Arrange your work place and the equipment you use to suit 
your individual needs and the kind of wo rk that you perform. In addition, use 
healthy work habits to maximize your  performance and comfort while using your 
computer. For more detailed information on any of these topics, visit the Healthy 
Computing Web site at: http://
www.lenovo.com/healthycomputing/. 
Arranging your work area
Use a work surface of appropriate height an d available working area to allow you to 
work in comfort. 
Organize your work area to match the way you use materials and equipment. Keep 
your work area clean and clear for the mate rials that you typically use and place the 
items that you use most frequently, such as  the computer mouse or telephone, within 
the easiest reach. 
Equipment layout and setup play a large role in your working posture. The following 
topics describe how to optimize equipm ent setup to achieve and maintain good 
working posture. 
Positioning your monitor
Position and adjust your computer monito r for comfortable viewing by considering 
the following items: 
• Viewing distance : Optimal viewing distances for monitors range from 
approximately 510mm to 760mm (20 in to 30 in) and can vary depending on 
ambient light and time of day. You can  achieve different viewing distances by 
repositioning your monitor or by modifyin g your posture or chair position. Use a 
viewing distance that is most comfortable for you.
• Monitor height : Position the monitor so your head and neck are in a comfortable 
and neutral (vertical, or upright) position.  If your monitor does not have height 
adjustments, you might have to place b ooks or other sturdy objects under the 
base of the monitor to achieve the desired height. A general guideline is to 
position the monitor such that the top of th e screen is at or slightly below your 
eye-height when you are comf ortably seated. However, be sure to optimize your 
monitor height so the line of site betw een your eyes and the center the monitor 
suits your preferences for visual distance  and comfortable viewing when your eye 
muscles are in a relaxed state.
• Ti l t: Adjust the tilt of your monitor to  optimize the appearance of the screen 
content and to accommodate your preferred head and neck posture.
• General location : Position your monitor to avoid glare or reflections on the screen 
from overhead lighting or nearby windows.
The following are some other tips for comfortable viewing of your monitor: 
• Use adequate lighting for the ty pe of work you are performing.
