The lightning flash with an arrow triangular symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of non insulated "dangerous voltage" within the products enclosure, and may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock. The exclamation point triangular symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the user manual accompanying the amplifier. NOTE: This product satisfies FCC regulations when shielded cables and connectors are used to connect the unit to other equipment. [. . . ] The pitch is changed by sliding the Pitch Slider (12) in an up and down motion. The STROBE INDICATORS (2) on the rim of the PLATTER (20) can be used to visual approximate the platter pitch. These indicators are lit by the STROBE INDICATOR PILOT LAMP (4) as they pass by the POWER SWITCH (5). At different pitch levels each row of STROBE INDICATORS (2) may appear stand still. Note: The use of heavy fluorescent lighting directly above the turntable will defeat the STROBE LAMP PILOT LAMP (4) affect indicator accuracy. Product Service: 1.
