PRACTICAL INFORMATION

Replacing bulbs
The halogen headlight, backup light bulbs and
rear fog light bulbs
11
can be replaced by the
owner.
Models with LED (Light Emitting Diode) head-
lights: these lights must be replaced by a trained
and authorized Volvo service technician.
NOTE
Halogen headlights are not available on all
models or in all markets.
Consult your Volvo retailer if you are uncertain
about the type of headlights in your vehicle.
NOTE
•
For information regarding any bulbs not
mentioned in this section, please contact
your Volvo retailer or a trained and
authorized Volvo service technician.
•
Always switch off the ignition before star-
ting to replace a bulb.
•
If an error message remains in the dis-
play after a faulty bulb has been replaced,
contact an authorized Volvo workshop.
•
Condensation may form temporarily on
the inside of the lenses of exterior lights
such as headlights, fog lights, or taillights.
This is normal and the lights are
designed to withstand moisture. Normally,
condensation will dissipate after the
lights have been on for a short time.
•
The optional Active Bending Light bulbs
contain trace amounts of mercury. These
bulbs should always be disposed of by a
trained and qualified Volvo service techni-
cian.
CAUTION
Never touch the glass of bulbs with your fin-
gers. Grease and oils from your fingers vapor-
ize in the heat and will leave a deposit on the
reflector, which will damage it.
WARNING
•
The ignition should be switched off com-
pletely (be in ignition mode
0
) when
replacing bulbs.
•
If the engine has been running just prior
to replacing bulbs in the headlight hous-
ing, please keep in mind that components
in the engine compartment will be hot.
Before the halogen headlight bulbs can be
replaced, that plastic covering over the headlight
housing has to be removed and the housing has
to be lifted out of the vehicle.
11 Halogen bulbs are not available on all models.
