Sitting too close to the computer screen can cause too much strain on the eyes.
This can cause blurred vision and even a headache!
DO NOT PULL THE SCREEN CLOSER TO YOU!

4. Take a break! Give your eyes a break from the screen.
Stretch out your arms and hands. Make a fist, clinch, then stretch your fingers.
Stand up and stretch your back.

5. Not a touch screen!
You should not touch your monitor (screen) unless you are using the DVD feature, adjusting the tilt, or powering on. 
Do not pull the monitor closer to you. 
When adjusting the tilt, firmly hold the top sides of the monitor, and tilt up or down. Do not grab the bottom/sides!
DO NOT TURN YOUR SCREEN FOR YOUR NEIGHBOR TO SEE!
