Getting Started
This section guides you through the initial steps of using your VAIO computer. It's important to follow these instructions carefully for a smooth setup process.
Important Note: Before powering on your computer for the first time, do not connect any hardware not supplied with the computer. After the initial startup, connect devices one by one, following the manufacturer's instructions.
Ergonomic Considerations
When using your portable VAIO computer in various environments, it is recommended to consider the following ergonomic guidelines for both stationary and portable use to ensure comfort and prevent strain.
- Computer Placement: Position the computer directly in front of you. Keep your forearms horizontal with your wrists relaxed while using the keyboard or pointing device. Your upper arms should be relaxed at your sides. Take regular breaks to avoid eye strain and muscle fatigue.
- Furniture and Posture: Choose a chair that properly supports your back. Adjust the chair height so your feet rest flat on the floor. Using a footrest can enhance comfort. Maintain a relaxed, upright posture, avoiding slouching or leaning too far back.
- Display Angle and Lighting: Adjust the display's tilt to find the best viewing position to reduce eye strain. Ensure adequate lighting that does not cause glare or reflections on the screen. Indirect lighting is recommended to prevent bright spots.
