Note:
In view of the required precision we advise you
to use the correct optical and electronic
adjustment equipment, and always follow the
manufacturer’s instructions and advice.
If the c orrect equipment is not available, the
setting of the headlights (dipped beam) can be
checked as follows:
- The dipped beam should have a downward
slant of 1%, which means that when it is
projected on a board or wall at a distance of
10 metres, the light-dark division should be
10 cm below the centre height of the
headlamp.
1. When checking the headlight setting
(dipped beam) the vehicle must carry no
load and the tyres should have the
prescribed tyre pressure.
2. Ensure that the vehicle is standing on a flat
and level surface.
3. Make sure t hat when checking the headlight
setting, the rotary knob for the headlight
adjustment, if available, is in its central “0”
position.
Adjusting the headlight setting

bolts which c an be reached through the
openings in the headlight rim.

adjustment of the beam and adjusting
