VAIO Slimtop Computer QuickStart

Welcome

Congratulations on your purchase of the Sony VAIO® computer! Your

new, high-performance, multimedia computer combines state-of-the-art

computer functionality with the latest audio, video and information

technology features.

Features

VAIO AV Applications

This suite of Sony original applications includes PictureGear™, Smart Capture,

DVgate™, DigitalPrint, SonicStage™, MovieShaker™, VisualFlow™, and

Media Bar™ DVD Player. These software applications make it easy to use

advanced multimedia techniques to develop your personal audio and video

creations. Using the i.LINK ports, you can capture, view, and share both still and

i.LINK (IEEE1394) interface

Two built-in i.LINK® ports, located on the front and rear panels, provide you

with digital connection capability. The i.LINK name and logo identify a high-

speed communication interface, which allows you to easily connect compatible

digital camcorders.

✍Your computer may not be equipped with all of the hardware features listed in this

section. To view the specific hardware configuration for your system, see the

Specifications sheet.

✍i.LINK is a trademark of Sony used only to designate that a product contains an

IEEE1394 connection. The i.LINK connection may vary, depending on the software

applications, operating system and compatible i.LINK devices. All products with an

i.LINK connection may not communicate with each other.

Please refer to the documentation that came with your compatible i.LINK device for

information on operating conditions and proper connection. Before connecting

compatible i.LINK PC peripherals to your system, such as an optical or hard disk drive,

confirm their operating system compatibility and required operating conditions.

VAIO Slimtop Computer QuickStart

To Choose an Ergonomic Location for your

Computer

Before you get started, find the best location for your new computer.

Planning your workspace

❑Stable work surface —Use a stable work surface large enough to support

the computer and other peripheral equipment.

❑Ventilation —Leave at least eight inches of space on the left and back sides

of your computer to enable proper ventilation.

❑Placement of the keyboard, mouse, and other input devices —Place

your keyboard, mouse, and other input devices so that your arms and hands

are in a relaxed, comfortable position. The keyboard should be directly in

front of you. Adjust the level of the keyboard so that your lower arms are

parallel to the floor. Keep your wrists in a relaxed position when you are

using the keyboard—not angled up or down. Use the palmrest only briefly,

for resting. While typing, never use the palmrest or rest your hands on the

table. Position the mouse at the same level as the keyboard. Hold the mouse

with a relaxed hand, and use your whole arm to move it. Take breaks during

sessions with your computer. Excessive use of the mouse or a joystick 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 with relaxed, upright

posture—avoid slouching forward or leaning far backward.

❑Viewing angle of the display —Position the display 18 to 26 inches

directly in front of you, with the top of the screen at or a little below eye

level. Use the display’s tilting feature to find the best position. You can

reduce eye strain and muscle fatigue by placing the display in the proper

position.

❑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.
