Replacing high/low beam headlight bulbs
The headlight bulbs must be replaced from the engine compartment.
CAUTION:
Do not touch the glass on halogen bulbs with your fingers. Grease, oil or any other impurities can be carbonized
onto the bulb and cause damage to the reflector.
Be sure to use bulbs of the correct type and voltage.
Removing a defective bulb
To remove a defective bulb:
Switch off the ignition.
Open the hood.
Remove the plastic cover over the bulb (1) by turning it counterclockwise.
Remove the connector (2).
Loosen the retaining spring (3) by first moving it to the right and then moving it down, out of the way.
Pull out the defective bulb. Note the position of the guide lug on the base of the bulb (4).
Installing a new bulb
Installing a new bulb:
Insert the new bulb, without touching the glass, with the guide lug upward (1). The bulb will only seat properly in
this position.
Move the retaining spring up and push it slightly to the left until it seats properly (2).
Press the connector into place on the bulb (3).
Reinstall the plastic cover and turn it clockwise until it is correctly in place (4). "TOP" must be upward.
NOTE: If the vertical aim of your headlights needs to be adjusted for any reason (e.g., towing a trailer for extended
periods), this should be done by an authorized Volvo retailer.

Number of valves24
Charge air cooler (Intercooler)
Turbocharged engines employ a turbo-compressor to force air into the engine inlet manifold and a charge air cooler to
cool the compressed inlet air. The resulting increase in air flow raises pressure in the intake manifold and increases
engine power over that developed by the normally-aspirated engine. The charge air cooler (which resembles a radiator)
is located between the turbo-compressor and inlet manifold.

Compact disc care
· Before using a new disc for the first time, remove any burrs in the center/outer edge by running the stem of a pen or
similar object around the hole/edge of the disc.
· Use high quality discs only.
· Keep the discs clean. Wipe them with a soft, clean, lint-free cloth, working from the center outwards. If necessary,
dampen the cloth with a neutral soap solution. Dry thoroughly before using.
· Never use cleaning spray or antistatic liquid. Use only cleaners specifically made for CDs.
· Use discs of the correct size only (3.5" discs should never be used). The discs should conform to the norms EN60908
(IEC60908).
· Do not put tape or labels on the disc itself.
· Volvo does not recommend the use of plastic outer rings on the disc.
· Condensation may occur on discs/optical components of the changer in cold winter weather. The disc can be dried
with a clean, lint-free cloth. Optical components in the CD changer may, however, take up to one hour to dry off.
· Never attempt to play a disc which is damaged in any way.
· When not in use, the discs should be stored in their covers. Avoid storing discs in excessive heat, direct sunlight or
dusty locations.
Cassettes
· Store cassettes in their cases.
· Do not touch the tape surface with your fingers.
· Tapes should not be exposed to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
· Keep tapes away from oil, grease and other contaminants.
· For optimal tape deck performance Volvo does not recommend the use of C-120 tapes.
· Take up slack using a pen or a pencil before inserting a cassette in the cassette slot.
Cassette cleaning
We recommend the use of the Volvo Cleaning Cassette available as a genuine Volvo accessory. Regular use improves
sound quality, cleans vital parts and prevents tape tangle.
