Adjusting headlamp level
The load in the car changes the vertical alignment of the headlamp beam, which could dazzle oncoming motorists. Avoid this by adjusting the headlamp level. Lower the beam if the car is heavily laden.
The position in which the thumbwheel should be set for a number of load cases is shown below.
