Note. Check and adjust the headlights on an equipped car (with full tank, tool and spare wheel).
1. Pre-check and, if necessary, bring the air pressure in the tires to normal. (see here).
2. Install the car against the wall, at a distance of 3 m (e.g. in the garage). Put an additional weight of 75 kg on the driver's seat, thereby simulating the weight of the driver. Mark the screen on the wall as shown. The longitudinal plane of symmetry of the car must pass along line 0 on the screen. Rock the vehicle laterally to allow the suspension springs to self-adjust.
3. Measure the distance from the center of the headlights to the floor on your vehicle. This will be the distance h on the screen.
4. Install the headlight range control (if it is installed) on the instrument panel to the position corresponding to the load of the car with one driver. (see here).
5. Turn on low beam.
6. It is recommended to check the direction of the light spot for each headlight separately. Cover the second headlight with an opaque material during adjustment.
7. If the location of the light spots does not match the figure, open the hood. Turning the adjusting screw (view of the left block headlight from the engine compartment), adjust the horizontal position of the light spot on the screen...
8....and vertically.
To rotate the vertical adjustment screw, insert the hexagon through the hole in the upper cross member of the radiator frame.
This is how the screw for adjusting the headlights vertically is located.
9. The headlights are considered adjusted when the upper borders of the left parts of the light spots coincide with line 4, and the vertical lines 1 and 2 pass through the points E1 and E2 of the intersection of the horizontal and inclined sections of the light spots.
10. If necessary, adjust the second headlight in the same way.
Fog lamp adjustment
1. Light beams of fog lamps are adjusted only in height. To access the adjusting screws on the fog lamp housings, holes are provided in the fog lamp trims. By turning the adjusting screws with a Phillips-head screwdriver, achieve that the upper borders of the light spots are on line 4 or slightly below it.
This is how the adjusting screw A is located on the fog lamp housing and the hole B for adjustment in the headlight trim (view with fender removed).
