Replacing bulbs

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 Bending Light 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 techni- cian:

•Active Bending Lights

•Courtesy (dome) lighting

•Reading lights

•Glove compartment lights

•Turn signals and courtesy lights in the side door mirrors

•High-mounted brake lights
