Headlight Beam
Leveler
(if equipped)
Your vehicle’s High-Intensity
Discharge (HID) headlights
generate more light than
conventional halogen
headlights. Therefore, a driver
of an oncoming vehicle may
experience too much glare
when your headlight beam
height adjustment is high
because the vehicle is carrying
a heavy load. The headlight
beam leveler can be used to
adjust beam height to avoid
such a condition. To lower the
beam, turn the knob to the
higher numbers.
