I-Tech Series amplifi ers require Class 2 output wiring.

Les amplifi cateurs de série de I-Tech exigent des câbles de sortie de classe 2.

I-Tech-Reihe-Verstärker verlangen Klasse die 2 Produktionsverdrah- tung.

Los amplifi cadores de la Serie I-Tech requieren de un cableado de salida Clase 2.

MAGNETIC FIELD

CAUTION! Do not locate sensitive high-gain equipment such as pre- amplifi ers directly above or below the unit. Because this amplifi er has a high power density, it has a strong magnetic fi eld which can induce hum into unshielded devices that are located nearby. The fi eld is strongest just above and below the unit.

If an equipment rack is used, we recommend locating the amplifi ers) in the bottom of the rack and the preamplifi er or other sensitive equip- ment at the top.

FCC COMPLIANCE NOTICE

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

CAUTION: Changes or modifi cations not expressly approved by the party responsible for complicance could void the user’s authority to operate the euqipment.

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 equip- ment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio com- munications. 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 recep- tion, which can be determined by turning 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 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/TV technician for help.
