TROUBLESHOOTING MSZ-FD25VA MSZ-FD25VAS MSZ-FD35VA MSZ-FD35VAS MSZ-FD50VA MSZ-FD50VAS 10-1. CAUTIONS ON TROUBLESHOOTING 1. Before troubleshooting, check the following 1) Check the power supply voltage. 2) Check the indoor/outdoor connecting wire for miswiring. 2. Take care of the following during servicing 1) Before servicing the air conditioner, be sure to turn OFF the main unit first with the remote controller, and then after confirming the horizontal vane is closed, turn OFF the breaker and/or disconnect the power plug.
