Arranging a comfortable and productive work area
Arranging your work area
When you arrange your computer, position your monitor 
and keyboard directly in front of you. Place the mouse 
close to the keyboard so that you can use it without 
stretching or leaning over to one side.
The system unit is usually kept on the floor under or 
beside your desk. Be sure to place it in an area that will 
not block the space you need to put your legs under the 
work surface.
Organize your desk to reflect the way you use work 
materials and equipment. Place the things that you use 
most regularly, such as a mouse or telephone, within 
the easiest reach.
Note
The computer you 
purchased may have 
components which are 
different from those shown 
here.
