MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE  
Bulb replacement  
Exterior lamp positions  
Lamp types vary depending on model and  
equipment level. If a bulb14 breaks, it can be  
replaced according to the method described  
in the Owner's Manual.  
The exterior lighting of the car uses a number  
of different lamps. An LED16 type lamp must  
be replaced by a workshop. An authorised  
Volvo workshop is recommended.  
If an error message remains after the bro-  
ken bulb has been replaced then we rec-  
ommend visiting an authorised Volvo  
workshop.  
If a fault occurs in LED15 lamps, the entire  
lamp unit usually must be replaced.  
Lamps, front  
Outside lighting such as headlamps and  
rear lamps may temporarily have conden-  
sation on the inside of the lens. This is nor-  
mal, all exterior lighting is designed to  
withstand this. Condensation is normally  
vented out of the lamp housing when the  
lamp has been switched on for a time.  
For information about bulbs not covered in  
this Owner's Manual, contact a Volvo  
dealer or an authorised Volvo workshop.  
WARNING  
The car's electrical system must be in igni-  
tion position 0 when replacing bulbs.

Cleaning leather upholstery*  
WARNING  
Use cleaning agents and car care products  
recommended by Volvo. Clean regularly, and  
deal with stains straight away. Vacuuming is  
important prior to using cleaning agents.  
Only use one inlaid mat at each seat, and  
check before setting off that the mat by the  
driver's seat is firmly affixed and secured in  
the pins so that it does not get caught  
adjacent to and under the pedals.  
4. Wipe the stain with a soft cloth and allow  
the leather to dry thoroughly.  
Protecting the leather upholstery  
1. Apply a small amount of leather protective  
agent to a cloth and then apply it to the  
leather in light circular motions.  
Volvo's leather upholstery* is treated to pre-  
serve its original appearance.  
Related information  
Leather upholstery* is a natural product that  
changes and acquires a beautiful patina over  
time. Regular cleaning and treatment are  
required in order that the properties and col-  
ours of the leather shall be preserved. Volvo  
offers a comprehensive product, Volvo Leather  
Care KitWipes, for cleaning and treatment of  
leather upholstery. The protective outer layer  
of the leather is preserved when this is used  
according to the instructions.  
2. Allow to dry for about 20 minutes.  
> Protecting the leather upholstery  
makes it more resistant to the stresses  
from the sun's UV radiation.  
Related information  
To achieve results that are as good as possi-  
ble, Volvo recommends cleaning and applica-  
tion of the protective cream one to four times  
per year (or more frequently if required). Volvo  
Leather Care Kit/Wipes is available from Volvo  
dealers.  
Cleaning the leather upholstery  
1. Apply the leather cleaner to a damp  
sponge and squeeze until a foam is cre-  
ated.
