TO QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.

FCC INTERFERENCE STATEMENT

NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B digital device, pursuant to part
15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and if not installed
and used in accordance to the instructions , may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there
is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by switching the equipment off and on, the user
is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio or TV technician for help.

IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

& EXPLANATION OF SYMBOLS

WARNING: TO PREVENT FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS
EQUIPMENT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the
presence of uninsulated “dangerous” voltage within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient
magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to humans.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the
presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in this manual.

This amplifier has a serial number located on the rear panel.

Please write this and the model number down and keep them for your records.

Model: ISA ________________________________

Serial Number:______________________________

Date of Purchase:____________________________

Purchased From:_____________________________

The lightning flashes printed next to the OUTPUT terminals of all ISA amplifiers are intended to alert the user
to the risk of hazardous energy. Output connectors that could pose a risk are marked with the lightning flash.

Do not touch output terminals while amplifier power is on. Make all connections with amplifier turned off.
