How to adjust the high beam height of the Volkswagen Lamando?
2 Answers
To adjust the high beam height of the Lamando, there are two adjustment screws at the back of the headlight assembly. Open it to see them—one for adjusting left and right, and the other for adjusting height. Relevant information is as follows: 1. The high beam can improve visibility and expand the field of view. On dark roads without streetlights, the visible range with the high beam on is much larger than with only the low beam on. When driving in the city, try to avoid using the high beam, as urban lighting conditions are generally good. The high beam angle is too high and can easily dazzle oncoming drivers and pedestrians, affecting their visibility and posing safety risks. However, alternately turning the high beam on and off at night can replace the horn to alert pedestrians and vehicles around, avoiding excessive noise. 2. The Lamando's body dimensions are 4599mm in length, 1826mm in width, and 1425mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2656mm.
I've been driving the Volkswagen Lamando for three years and found that adjusting the high beam height is actually quite simple. First, you need to open the hood and locate the adjustment screws behind the headlight module in the engine compartment. There are usually two knobs—one controls the horizontal height and the other the vertical direction. I just use a Phillips screwdriver to gently rotate the vertical one. It's best to do this at night on a flat road with a wall in front to ensure the light doesn't shine into other drivers' eyes. After turning on the headlights, you can see the light spot move up and down by rotating the screw. If adjusted too high, it will dazzle oncoming traffic; if too low, it won't illuminate far enough. For safety, adjust it to the right position. If you don't have the tools or aren't sure, you can check Chapter 12 of the owner's manual—it has illustrated steps—or simply go to a repair shop and let a technician adjust it for you. Always pay attention to whether the headlights are abnormal while driving, and timely adjustments can help avoid nighttime accidents.
