When replacing bulbs, keep the following
points in mind:•
Never touch the glass of bulbs with your
fingers. Grease and oils from your fingers
vaporize in the heat and will leave a deposit
on the reflector, which will damage it.

The optional Active Bi-Xenon headlight
bulbs contain trace amounts of mercury.
These bulbs should always be disposed of
by an authorized Volvo retailer.

The following bulbs should only be
replaced by a trained and qualified Volvo
service technician:
– Active Bi-Xenon headlights,
– Courtesy (dome) lighting,
