8. SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE
SAFETY GUIDELINES
In order to achieve maximum safety while using your Razer BlackWidow Elite, we suggest that you
adopt the following guidelines:
Should you have trouble operating the device properly and troubleshooting does not work, unplug
the device and contact the Razer hotline or go to
support.razer.com
for support.
Do not take apart the device (doing so will void your warranty) and do not attempt to operate it
under abnormal current loads.
Keep the device away from liquid, humidity or moisture. Operate the device only within the specific
temperature range of 0°C (32°F) to 40°C (104°F). Should the temperature exceed this range,
unplug and/or switch off the device in order to let the temperature stabilize to an optimal level.
COMFORT
Research has shown that long periods of repetitive motion, improper positioning of your computer
peripherals, incorrect body position, and poor habits may be associated with physical discomfort
and injury to nerves, tendons, and muscles. Below are some guidelines to avoid injury and ensure
optimum comfort while using your Razer BlackWidow Elite.
1.
Position your keyboard and monitor directly in front of you with your mouse next to it. Place
your elbows next to your side, not too far away and your keyboard within easy reach.
2.
Adjust the height of your chair and table
so that
the keyboard and mouse are at or below
elbow height.
3.
Keep your feet well supported, posture straight and your shoulders relaxed.
4.
During gameplay, relax your wrist and keep it straight. If you do the same tasks with your
hands repeatedly, try not to bend, extend or twist your hands for long periods.
5.
Do not rest your wrists on hard surfaces for long periods.
6.
Use a wrist rest to support your wrist while gaming.
7.
Customize the keys on your keyboard to suit your style of gaming in order to minimize
repetitive or awkward motions while gaming.
8.
Do not sit in the same position all day. Get up, step away from your desk and do exercises to
stretch your arms, shoulders, neck and legs.
