How to adjust the headlight height of Santana?
2 Answers
Vehicles are equipped with a headlight height adjustment control device, allowing for manual adjustment of the headlight beam height. The control device is located on the exterior light controller on the left side of the steering wheel. Rotate the adjustment gear to adjust the headlight height. Automatic headlight height adjustment is based on the vehicle's automatic sensing to adjust accordingly. Adjust the headlight adjuster or the adjustment screws on the headlight assembly.
I've been driving my Santana for almost ten years, and the headlight height adjustment on this car is very simple. There's a small rotary knob with numbers from 0 to 3 near the dashboard on the left side of the driver's position. When the car is empty, I usually set it to position 2, which provides sufficient lighting distance while remaining safe. When fully loaded or with heavy items in the trunk, I lower it to position 0 or 1 to prevent the headlights from shining too high and dazzling oncoming traffic due to the rear being weighed down. It's important to regularly check if the headlight angle meets the standard, especially during night driving or in mountainous areas. Improper lighting not only affects others but also reduces your own visibility. I recommend adjusting it at least once a month, taking into account changes in the car's weight. This practice helps extend the bulb's lifespan and ensures peace of mind during night driving. This feature is very user-friendly in the Santana, with simple operation suitable for all ages.
