Jakarta, CNN Indonesia —
Highlight the headlights or headlamp car that do not match the potential to reduce the driver’s vision towards the front. Adjust the direction of the lights so that they are right on target, because in addition to improving vision, they also do not interfere with drivers from the opposite direction.
Here’s how to adjust the height of the car’s headlights.
1. Point the car at the wall
Looking for a wall for a target to shoot the direction of the lamp that serves as a reference for the direction of the vehicle’s main headlights. The walls and space are quite spacious, making it easier to adjust the direction of the light.
Moreover, it is done in a rather dark place so that the light can be seen more clearly. If you can find the location, bring the car closer to the wall and draw a line as a mark parallel to the height of the top light.
2. Reverse the car
The car is backed about 10 meters while the lights are on. Ideally the upper limit of the light beam should hit that line.
3. Adjust the lamp with a screwdriver
If it fits, then adjust the direction of the lights. Usually the way of setting it from the bolts behind the lamp. To set it use a screwdriver or L wrench according to the vehicle manual.
For the right lamp, try to keep the point of fire straight with the position of the headlamp and tend towards the bottom or the road.
The goal is to prevent road users in the opposite direction from being dazzled. Meanwhile, the left side can be directed slightly outward, which is about 5 degrees so that the light beam is wider on the road.
The reason is different from the one on the right, this is intended so that motorists can see the side of the road or sidewalk, of course other than the front direction. So, make sure the highlight direction headlamp for a comfortable and safe driving, citing a written statement from Peugeot.
