Headlamp Alignment
The headlamps of your Lotus Evora were correctly adjusted
during the manufacture of the car, and should not subsequently
require adjustment unless the headlamp assembly or front body
is disturbed. Simply replacing the bulb or burner unit will not
affect alignment. Incorrectly adjusted headlamps can cause
poor lighting performance or dazzle oncoming traffic. Special
headlamp setting equipment is required to correctly aim the
headlamps, such that only qualified technicians using appropri-
ate equipment should be entrusted with this procedure:
1. Using beam setting equipment compatible with local regula-
tions, position the machine between 300 and 700mm in front
of the LH headlamp, and parallel with the two headlamp
units using the sight bar or similar device dependent on the
machine design, to ensure cross car match. Use the guides
provided on the machine to ensure the correct height and
lateral setting.
2. Switch on the headlamp low beams and check the vertical
alignment of the beam which must lie within a tolerance of
-0.5% and -2%.
3. If adjustment is required, turn the steering to full lock to fa-
cilitate removal of the three screws retaining the access cover
in the wheelarch liner.
