Ergonomic Considerations

You will be using your computer as a portable device in a variety of environments. Whenever possible, you should attempt

to take account of the following ergonomic considerations for both stationary and portable environments:

❑Position of your computer – Place the computer directly in front of you (1). Keep your forearms horizontal (2), with your

wrists in a neutral, comfortable position (3) while using the keyboard or the pointing device. Let your upper arms hang

naturally at your sides. Take frequent breaks while using your computer. Excessive use of the computer may strain eyes,

muscles, or tendons.

❑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.

n N

Before Use >

Ergonomic Considerations

❑Viewing angle of the computer's display – Use the display's tilting feature to find the best position. You can reduce eye

strain and muscle fatigue by adjusting the tilt of the display to the proper position. Adjust the brightness level of the display

as well.

❑Lighting – Choose a location where windows and lights do not cause glare and reflection on the display. Use indirect

lighting to avoid bright spots on the display. Proper lighting adds to your comfort and work efficiency.

❑Positioning an external display – When using an external display, set the display at a comfortable viewing distance.

Make sure the display screen is at eye level or slightly lower when you are sitting in front of the monitor.

standards and supplied by Sony for your VAIO computer. Some VAIO computers may operate only with genuine Sony battery packs.

n N

Getting Started >

If the battery charge level falls below 10%, you should either connect the AC adapter to recharge the battery pack or shut down your computer and

install a fully charged battery pack.

Your computer is supplied with a lithium ion battery pack and can be recharged any time. Charging a partially discharged battery pack does not affect

the life of battery.

While some software applications or peripheral devices are in use, your computer may not enter Hibernate mode even when the remaining battery life

is short. To avoid loss of data when using battery power, you should save your data frequently and manually activate a power management mode, such

as Sleep or Hibernate.

If the battery pack wears out when the computer enters Sleep mode, you will lose all unsaved data. Going back to the previous work state is impossible.
