Setting up your workspace
4. Reposition your monitor as you adjust your working posture throughout the workday.
Don’t stay in one fixed posture for too long, but avoid slouching or leaning, and get up to move
around regularly.
NOTE: The perfect working posture may require third-party accessories such
as adjustable or ergonomic chairs, footrests, or specialized peripherals. All
bodies are different, so try different things to find out what makes you most
comfortable!
WATCH YOUR EYES
Make sure you rest your eyes frequently. Looking away from your monitor and focusing on a
distant point can help avoid eyestrain. Make sure to keep your room properly lit and wear the
correct glasses or contact lenses if required. Your display can also influence your eye comfort.
Eliminate glare across the screen, for example by adjusting Spectrum so that the side faces your
window or light source.
Adjusting Spectrum to a comfortable brightness and contrast level can help enhance the
readability and clarity of text and images. You can learn more about adjusting the image on page
33.
Be sure to keep Spectrum clean, as dust or stains can affect readability and clarity of text and
images. You can learn more about cleaning the screen on page 42.
LOW BLUE LIGHT
Visible light contains a range of wavelengths and energy. Blue light is the part of the visible light
spectrum that contains the highest energy. Because of this, is has more potential to cause harm
to the eye than other visible light.
Most exposure to blue light occurs when you're outside during the day, as sunlight is its main
source. But a reduction in artificial blue light, such as from computer screens, can reduce eye
strain, increase comfort in dark environments, and may even be beneficial to long-term eye
health.
The displayed colors of Spectrum can be adjusted to reduce the amount of blue light emitted.
Changing the color temperature to warm colors will reduce the amount of blue light and cause
colors to appear with an orange tint. Alternatively, you can manually adjust the color balance to
reduce the amount of blue light emitted by Spectrum. You can learn more about adjusting the
color temperature on page 33.
