Bulb replacement
The bulb in the halogen headlamp can be
replaced by the driver.
The bulb in the halogen headlamp can be
replaced without the help of a workshop, but the
plastic cover over the headlamp must be removed
before a bulb can be replaced.
Lift off the rubber strip by pressing it inward
in the engine compartment.
Press down the pins into the plastic cover's
four clips using a screwdriver or similar and
lift away the cover.
Refit the cover in reverse order.
The dipped beam bulb becomes accessible when
the headlamp's round rubber cover is removed.
Bulbs for direction indicators, main beam and
daytime running lights/position lamps are acces-
sible when the headlamp's oval cover is
detached, see the section "Removing the head-
lamp's oval cover".
Contact a workshop

if faults occur in other
lamps. This also applies to the bulbs for reversing
lights. If a fault occurs in LED

lamps, the entire
lamp unit usually must be replaced.
WARNING
The car's electrical system must be in ignition
position 0 when replacing bulbs.
IMPORTANT
Never touch the glass part of the bulbs with
your fingers. Grease from your fingers is
vaporised by the heat, coating the reflector
and then causing damage.

An authorised Volvo workshop is recommended.
