BYD F3 headlight height adjustment method: You can use the headlight adjustment knob. First, park the car 7.6 meters away from a wall, turn on the headlights facing the wall, and adjust the light projection position in real time according to the light reflection on the wall. Rotate the gear near the center position counterclockwise, and the light will gradually move downward. Rotating in the opposite direction will raise the light. The BYD F3 is an A+ class passenger car produced by BYD Auto, with a body length, width, and height of 4533 mm, 1705 mm, and 1490 mm respectively, and a wheelbase of 2600 mm. The BYD F3 is equipped with 5 seats, featuring simple and elegant interior colors and a stylish and sophisticated exterior design.
I've been driving my BYD F3 for almost ten years, and adjusting the headlight height is something you can easily do yourself. First, open the hood and locate the rear of the headlight assembly, where you'll find two white plastic knobs. The left one controls the headlight height—turning it counterclockwise with a Phillips screwdriver raises the beam, while turning it clockwise lowers it. It's best to do this at night against a wall. Park the car about 3 meters from the wall, turn on the low beams, and adjust so the center of the main beam falls at about half the height of the headlight. Remember to adjust each side separately and tighten the screws afterward to prevent loosening. The older F3 models don't have electric adjustment, so this manual method is simple and cost-effective.
Last time I went to the 4S shop for maintenance, the technician taught me how to adjust the headlight height. For new models with electric adjustment, you can find the adjustment knob on the left side of the steering wheel, marked with numbers 0-3. The higher the number, the closer the light beam. However, my base model requires manual adjustment. I found a gear-shaped knob marked with up and down arrows behind the headlight in the engine compartment. You can turn it with a coin; turning it half a turn towards the up arrow raises the light slightly. It's most accurate to adjust while sitting in the driver's seat in the normal position, but don't set it too high to avoid affecting oncoming vehicles. After adjustment, remember to test the effect by driving up a slope.
