Replacing bulbs
The halogen headlight bulbs can be replaced by
the owner.
Before the bulbs can be replaced, that plastic
covering over the headlight housing has to be
removed.
To do so:
Lift the rubber strip by pressing in toward the
engine compartment.
Release the pins in the plastic covering's
four clips by pressing them down with a
screwdriver or similar object and remove the
covering.
The turn signal, high/low beam, Daytime Running
Light and parking light bulbs will be accessible
when the plastic covering has been removed.
Put the covering back in place in the reverse
order.
NOTE
The pins in the clips have to be pressed back
completely before the clips are placed in the
plastic covering.
When the covering is put back in place, the
pins must be pressed so that their upper sur-
face is flush with the surface of the clip.
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.
