TECHNICAL CHANGES These models are compatible with the outdoor units with low standby power control. Connecting these models to the MUZ-AP∙VG/VGH series outdoor units enables the low standby power control. These models may be connected to the MUZ-AP∙VG/VGH series after once connected to the MXZ series and operated, for example because of relocation.
