Significa que o Ângulo de Planeio Eletrônico (Rampa) do sistema de Pouso por Instrumentos (ILS)  está fora de serviço desde 01 JUN 2013 até 22 AGO 2013. Por esta razão,  os pilotos devem efetuar a aproximação em condições VISUAIS.

That means the Glide Slope, which is a component for Instrument Landing System - ILS is out of service since June 01, 2013 to August 22, 2013. Therefore, pilots MUST fly visual approach and landing for Ruanway 28 Left at San Francisco airport - KSFO.
