Getting Started Setting up your work space Establishing a comfortable work site is important for you and your computer. A poor work environment or stressful work habits can result in discomfort or serious injury from repetitive strain to your hands, wrists or other joints. Proper ambient conditions should also be maintained for the computer's operation. This section discusses the following topics: ■ General conditions ■ Placement of the computer ■ Seating and posture ■ Lighting ■ Work habits General conditions In general, if you are comfortable, so is your computer, but read the following to make sure your work site provides a proper environment. ■ Select a work area that has: ■ a well-designed and functioning ventilation system that does not forcefully direct air on you ■ good air circulation ■ a comfortable ambient temperature and relative humidity. ■ Never place your PC where it will be exposed to excess heat, such as in direct sunlight, an unventilated vehicle or near a heater. This may result in a system failure, malfunction, loss of data or damage to PC. ■ Never place your PC in a location where it will be exposed to extremely low temperatures. This may result in a system failure, malfunction or loss of data. ■ Never subject your PC to sudden temperature variations. This may result in condensation, causing a system failure, malfunction or loss of data. ■ Do not expose your PC to dusty environments. If dust gets inside the PC, it could cause a system failure, malfunction or loss of data. If dust contaminates the PC, do not turn on the power. Take it to an authorized Toshiba service provider before you use it. ■ Never place your PC near an object that generates a magnetic field, such as a speaker or TV. Do not wear magnetic bracelets while using your PC. Exposure to magnetic fields can cause system failure, malfunction or loss of data. ■ Never place a heavy object on the PC and be careful not to drop a heavy object onto the PC. It could damage the PC or cause system failure. ■ Never use benzene, thinner or other chemicals when cleaning the PC, AC adaptor, or storage device.
