WARNING

On cars with Xenon headlamps, the

replacement of Xenon lamps must be car-

ried 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 when replacing bulbs, see

page 78

IMPORTANT

Never touch the glass part of the bulbs with

your fingers. Grease and oils from your fin-

gers are vaporised by the heat, coating the

reflector and then causing damage.

Headlamps front

All of the headlamp bulbs are replaced via the

engine compartment. Loosen and remove the

whole headlamp.

Removing the headlamp

1. Set the car's electrical system in key posi-

tion 0, see page 78:

2. (First illustration)

Pull out the headlamp's locking pins.

Release the headlamp by alternately

tilting and pulling it out.

IMPORTANT

Do not pull the electrical cable, only the con-

nector.
