The angle of the headlamp beam varies de-pending on the load carried by the vehicle.
The headlamp levelling switch can be used to
adjust the headlamp illumination distance (when the lower beam is illuminated) so that the headlamps’ glare does not distract otherdrivers.

ble) to the appropriate position according to
the number of people and the load in the ve- hicle.CAUTIONl Always perform adjustments before driving.
Do not attempt to adjust while driving, as it could cause an accident.NOTEl When adjusting the beam position, first put
the dial in the “0” position (the highest beamposition).Single cabVehicle con-
