Selecting a place to work
Taking breaks and varying tasks
Change the way you work so that you are not stuck in 
the same posture for long periods of time. Some people 
find it comfortable to occasionally stand while using the 
notebook. To do this properly, the notebook needs to be 
on an elevated surface. Make sure you follow the Good 
Working Posture points mentioned above while working.
Take short, strategically spaced rest breaks to avoid eye 
strain and body fatigue. For example, stand up and walk 
around or stretch for a few minutes every hour.
Taking regular breaks is especially important if you are 
working long hours on your computer or working on a 
deadline.
If stress at work is affecting your health, try to identify 
the sources of the stress and evaluate ways to reduce 
the stress.
Mobile computing tips
When using the notebook at airports, on airplanes or 
trains, or at meetings, make sure that you take the time 
to consider the points just mentioned.
When working on the road it may be difficult to set up 
the notebook in an optimal position. In these situations it 
is important that you take frequent breaks and change 
your posture frequently to relieve the excess loads on 
your body.
Be creative, when in a hotel room, use a rolled up 
blanket or pillows to provide back support, or to provide 
arm support. To position the computer at a good height, 
remember to operate the computer on a hard flat stable 
surface. Using your computer on a carpet, blanket or 
other soft materials can block the air vents including 
those located at the base of the computer and possibly 
cause overheating of your computer.
Transporting the notebook
Although your notebook is light, carrying it for a long time 
may lead to shoulder and arm fatigue. If you carry your 
notebook with other items, consider using an ergonomically-
designed computer case.
