The bulbs are specified. The following list contains locations of bulbs and other light sources that are specialised, such as LED1 lamps, or are unsuitable for changing for some other reason, except at a workshop:
- Active Xenon headlamps - ABL (Xenon lamps)
- Daytime running lights/Position/parking lamps front
- Side marker lamps front
- Cornering lights
- Side direction indicators, door mirrors
- Approach lighting, door mirrors
- Interior lighting apart from Courtesy lighting front
- Glovebox lighting
- Position/parking lamps rear
- Side marker lamps rear
- Direction indicators, rear.
Warning
On cars with Xenon headlamps, the replacement of Xenon lamps must be carried out at a workshop - an authorised Volvo workshop is recommended. Working with Xenon lamps demands extreme caution because the headlamp is equipped with a high voltage unit.
Warning
The car's electrical system must be in key position 0 for bulb replacement; see Key positions - functions at different levels.
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.
Note
If an error message remains after the broken bulb has been replaced then we recommend that you visit an authorised Volvo workshop.
Note
Outside lighting such as headlamps, fog lamps and rear lamps may temporarily have condensation on the inside of the lens. This is normal, all exterior lighting is designed to withstand this. Condensation is normally vented out of the lamp housing when the lamp has been switched on for a time.
