to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe

it is necessary.

The telephone company may make changes in

its facilities, equipment, operations or

procedures that could affect the operations of

the equipment. If this happens, the telephone

company will provide advance notice in order

for you to make the necessary modifications in

order to maintain uninterrupted service.

Applying Ergonomics

Your computer is a portable device and can be used in a variety of environments.

Whenever possible, you should apply the following ergonomic considerations for

both stationary and portable environments.

❑ Position of your computer — Place the computer directly in front of you as

you work. Keep your forearms horizontal, with your wrists in a neutral,

comfortable position while using the keyboard, touch pad, or external

mouse. Let your upper arms hang naturally at your sides. Take breaks during

sessions with your computer. Excessive use of the computer may strain

muscles or tendons.

❑ Furniture and posture — Sit in a chair with good back support and

armrests. 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 backward.

❑ Viewing angle of the computer’s display — Use the display’s tilting

feature to find the best viewing angle. Also try adjusting the brightness

setting of the display. Following these suggestions can reduce eye strain and

muscle fatigue.

❑ Lighting — Choose a location where windows and lights do not create glare

and reflection on the display. Use indirect lighting to avoid bright spots on

the display. You can also purchase accessories for your display that help

reduce glare. Proper lighting adds to your comfort and work effectiveness.

❑ Placement of 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.
