Operating the OmniBook Working in Comfort Headphones and Speakers Listening to loud sounds for prolonged periods may permanently damage your hearing. To avoid discomfort from unexpected noise, always turn down the volume before connecting headphones or speakers to your HP equipment.

General • Work Surface Height: Adjust either your seat height, work surface, or both, to position the work surface at approximately elbow height. • Work Surface Arrangement: Make sure frequently used equipment is within easy reach. For example, if you are primarily using the keyboard, place it directly in front of you, not to the side. If you are primarily using the mouse, place it in front of your hand or arm. If you are using both a mouse and keyboard, place them both at the same work surface height and close together. If a palm rest is used, the height should be flush with the front edge of the keyboard.
