Low beam headlight
Removing the defective bulb:
1. Switch off the headlights and turn the ignition switch to position 0.
2. Remove the plastic cover.
3. Disconnect the wiring connector.
4. Loosen the retaining spring by first moving it to the right and then moving it outward and downward, out of the
way.
5. Pull out the defective bulb.
Installing the new bulb:
1. Insert the new bulb, without touching the glass, with the guide lug upward. The bulb will only seat properly in this
position.
2. Move the retaining spring up and push it slightly to the left until it seats properly.
3. Reconnect the wiring connector.
4. Reinstall the plastic cover.
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.
