| Risk of accident from vehicle starting off by itself when engine running. Risk of injury (bruises and burns) resulting from working on the engine while it is being started or when it is running. | Secure vehicle to prevent it from starting off by itself. Wear closed and snug-fitting work clothes. Do not touch hot or rotating parts. | AS00.00-Z-0005-01A | |
| General information on checking/correcting headlamp adjustment | AH82.10-P-1000-01A | ||
| Preparatory tasks | |||
| 1 | Check operation of headlamp range adjustment | For vehicle with headlamp range controller (6). | |
| AP82.10-P-8250EW | |||
| 2 | Determine degree of inclination for main headlamps | ||
| Notes on determining headlamp aiming values | AH82.10-P-1005-01A | ||
| 3 | Park the vehicle on a horizontal, level surface | Vehicle: ±1 mm/m, Headlamp aimer (01): ±0.5 mm/m. |
|
| 4 | Align headlamp aimer (01) | It is essential to align the headlamp aimer (01) parallel to the front of the vehicle. The headlamp adjustment will otherwise be incorrect, which can then jeopardize the road safety of the vehicle! Other country-specific regulations or specifications in the operating instructions from the headlamp aiming device manufacturer must be observed accordingly. |
|
| 5 | Prepare vehicle for checking/correcting headlamp adjustment | AP82.10-P-8260-10C | |
| 6 | Set specified degree of inclination for main headlamps at headlamp aimer (01) | ||
| 7 | Switch on low beam | ||
| Check and, if necessary, adjust (checking and adjustment of the low beams is described at the left low beam headlamp (E1e2); the same procedure is used for the right side.) | |||
| 8.1 | Check height adjustment of left low beam headlamp (E1e2); adjust if necessary | For vehicle with steel suspension on front and rear axle. The colored area of the light-dark boundary (1) of the left low beam headlamp (E1e2) must be above the reference line for the height adjustment (2), as shown in the color image. If the height adjustment of the left low beam headlamp (E1e2) is not correct: ↓ Turn the adjustment screw for the height adjustment (H) to correct the height adjustment of the left low beam headlamp (E1e2). |
|
| 8.2 | Check height adjustment of left low beam headlamp (E1e2); adjust if necessary | For vehicle with level control on front and rear axle. The colored area of the light-dark boundary (1) of the left low beam headlamp (E1e2) must be above the reference line for the height adjustment (2), as shown in the color image. If the height adjustment of the left low beam headlamp (long range) (E1e16) is not correct: Move to calibrated vehicle level. Diagnosis → Control units view → Chassis → ADS - Adaptive Damping System → Actuations → Move to calibrated vehicle level and check headlamp adjustment again. |
|
| AD00.00-P-2000-04B | |||
| ↓ Headlamp adjustment incorrect: ↓ Calibrate level in chassis control unit. Diagnosis → Control units view → Chassis → ADS - Adaptive Damping System → Adaptations → Teach-in processes → Check level calibration and headlamp adjustment again. |
|||
| AD00.00-P-2000-04B | |||
| If the height adjustment of the left low beam (E1e2) is still incorrect after calibration of the vehicle level and the level calibration: ↓ Turn the adjustment screw for the height adjustment (H) to correct the height adjustment of the left low beam headlamp (E1e2). |
|||
| 9 | Check lateral adjustment of left low beam (E1e2) | The colored area of the light-dark boundary (1) of the left low beam headlamp (E1e2) must be above the reference line for the lateral adjustment (4), as shown in the color image. If the lateral adjustment of the left low beam headlamp (E1e2) is not correct: ↓ Check and correct the installation position of the headlamp concerned, subject to separate repair order. Then work through operation steps 3 to 9 again. |
