HEADLIGHT BEAM HEIGHT ADJUSTER
The angle of the dipped beams is affected by the distribution
of passenger and luggage weight within the car. It is important
that the headlights are adjusted to ensure that the point at
which they meet the road surface provides adequate
illumination ahead of the vehicle, without dazzling other road
users.
Using the following load conditions as a guide, adjust the
headlights by rotating the adjuster wheel (see inset):
•
Position ‘0’
Driver only, or driver plus a front seat passenger.
•
Position ‘1’
Up to all the seats occupied plus an evenly distributed load
in the boot.
•
Position ‘2’
Driver only, plus an evenly distributed load in the boot.
These loading definitions assume that all loads will be within
the limits of the maximum permissible axle and vehicle
weights
