| Adjusting the headlamps for driving overseas |
|
Hello all,
Not really new on the forum as I made some posts a couple of years ago, but (very) glad to be with you again 
I need help to know which position of the lever corresponds to UK and which one for France, please ?
When removing the headlamps, there is a domed cap on the main lamps (Xenon). When removing this cap, you can find a lever that can be used up or down depending on if you are driving in the UK or overseas. Can someone please tell me if up = UK or up = overseas (eg. France) ?
Thank you.
Kind regards,
Eric (Cactus)

Thanks grzesiul,
It is not about the others, it is about me. I am not convinced by the quality of the beam of my D4's headlamps. My D3 had better ones !
May be I moved something the wrong way when I decided to remove and "adjsut" my headlamps ?

According to the manual :
lower position - Lever in the correct position for the market where the vehicle was originally sold.
upper position - Lever in the correct position for whendriving in countries where they drive on the
opposite side of the road.
simples  Cheers Ian
