changing bulbs.
•If the engine has been running just prior
to replacing bulbs in the headlight hous-
ing, please keep in mind that compo-
nents in the engine compartment will be

WARNING
•Active Bending Lights* – due to the high
voltage used by these headlights, these
bulbs should only be replaced by a
trained and qualified Volvo service tech-
nician.

remote key from the ignition before
changing any bulbs.
Headlight housingThe entire headlight housing must be lifted out
when replacing all front bulbs.
CAUTION
Never touch the glass of bulbs with your fin-
gers. Grease and oils from your fingers
vaporize in the heat and will leave a deposit
on the reflector, which will damage it.

The wiper blades must be in the vertical (serv-
ice) position for replacement, washing or to lift
them away from the windshield when e.g.,
removing ice or snow. To put them in this posi-
tion:
CAUTION
Be sure the wiper blades are not frozen in
position before attempting to move them to
the service position.
1. Insert the remote key into the ignition
slot1 and press the START/STOP
ENGINE button briefly to put the ignition in
mode I (see page 85 for detailed informa-
tion about the ignition modes).
2.
Press the START/STOP ENGINE button
again briefly to switch the ignition off.

ice position, the wipers must be switched on
and off at least once before the service posi-
tion can be used again.
The wipers can be returned to the normal posi-
tion by pressing the START/STOP ENGINEbutton briefly to put the ignition in mode I (or
by starting the engine).

09 Maintenance and specifications
Battery09
321
WARNING
•Never expose the battery to open flame
or electric spark.
•Do not smoke near the battery.
•Battery fluid contains sulfuric acid. Do
not allow battery fluid to contact eyes,
skin, fabrics or painted surfaces. If con-
tact occurs, flush the affected area
immediately with water. Obtain medical
help immediately if eyes are affected.
NOTE
The life of the battery is shortened if it
becomes discharged repeatedly.
Maintenance
•Use a screw driver to open the caps or
cover and a flashlight to inspect the level.
•If necessary, add distilled water. The level
should never be above the indicator.
•The fluid level should be checked if the
battery has been recharged.
•After inspection, be sure the cap over each
battery cell or the cover is securely in
place.
•Check that the battery cables are correctly
connected and properly tightened.
•Never disconnect the battery when the
engine is running, or when the key is in the
ignition. This could damage the vehicle's
electrical system.
•The battery should be disconnected from
the vehicle when a battery charger is used
directly on the battery.
•To help keep the battery in good condition,
the vehicle should be driven for at least 15
minutes a week or connected to a charger
with an automatic charging function.
•If the battery is fully discharged a number
of times, this may shorten its service life.
Keeping the battery fully charged helps
prolong its service life.
•The service life of a battery is affected by
factors such as driving conditions and cli-
mate. Extreme cold may also further
decrease the battery’s starting capacity.
•Because the battery’s starting capacity
decreases with time, it may be necessary
to recharge it if the vehicle is not driven for
an extended period of time or if the vehicle
is usually only driven short distances.
CAUTION
•Always use distilled or deionized water
(battery water).
•Never fill above the level mark in the cell.
