Replacing bulbs

Bulb types vary depending on model and equipment level. If a light bulb1 breaks, it can be replaced by following the procedure shown in the Owner's Manual.

If you are experiencing problems with any lights other than light bulbs, contact a workshop2.

If there is a problem with an LED3 light, the entire lamp unit will normally need to be replaced.

 Note

For information on lights not mentioned in the Owner's Manual, contact a Volvo dealer or a certified Volvo service technician.

 Note

Exterior lighting such as headlights and taillights may develop temporary condensation on the inside of the lens. This is normal. All exterior lighting is designed to resist this. Condensation is normally vented out of the lamp housing once the light has been lit for some period of time.

 Note

Bulbs for active curve lighting* contain traces of mercury and should therefore always be submitted to a certified Volvo service technician.
  1. 1 Some vehicles do not have any light bulbs.
