How to adjust the height of the Geely Boyue's low beam?

On the far left side of the instrument panel near the door, there is a black plastic button that can be rolled up and down, with indicator lines ranging from thick to thin beside it. Rolling it up and down adjusts the headlights. More details are as follows: 1. The lighting should provide good illumination while minimizing glare. For headlights, to meet both requirements, high beam and low beam settings are used. The high beam is a long-distance lighting beam used when there are no oncoming vehicles or when not following other cars, generated by a higher-power main filament located at the reflector's focal point, with the beam direction approximately horizontal. It is generally stipulated that the maximum luminous intensity of a single lamp should not be less than 20,000 candelas. To ensure driving safety, the illumination distance of the high beam (the distance to detect and recognize obstacles) should be greater than the braking distance required for a timely stop. 2. Signal lights should allow other road users at a certain distance to clearly recognize the light signals. Parameters related to this include luminous intensity, luminous area, beam spread angle, and light color. 3. To make light signals easily recognizable at night against a dark background, for signal lights used only at night such as position lights, marker lights, and parking lights, the luminous intensity is typically between a few candelas and several tens of candelas.
I've been driving my Boyue SUV for several years, and adjusting the headlight height is quite common. Inside the driver's seat, you first need to find the small knob on the left side of the steering wheel, marked with up and down arrow symbols. Gently turning it can raise or lower the beam angle. If set too high, it can blind oncoming drivers, and if too low, it's hard to see the road clearly, so getting it right is important. I remember once driving at night on a mountain road—I adjusted it to the middle position slowly in the garage beforehand, and it made a huge difference in visibility. If unsure, you can always check the owner's manual for specific steps or visit a repair shop to have a technician calibrate it to avoid mistakes. Actually, regularly checking your lights can prevent many nighttime accidents.
