2015 Mitsubishi Lancer Owners Manual - Headlamp levelling



Headlamp levelling

Headlamp levelling switch*

The angle of the headlamp beam varies depending 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 other drivers. Set the switch according to the following table.

CAUTION

Always perform adjustments before driving. Do not attempt to adjust while driving, as it could cause an accident.

 Full luggage loading

Switch position 0- Driver only/Driver + 1 front passenger

Automatic headlamp levelling*

This mechanism automatically adjusts the direction of the headlamps (beam position) depending on changes in the condition of the vehicle, such as the number of occupants or luggage weight. When the headlamps are illuminated with the ignition switch in the “ON” position, the beam position of the headlamps is automatically adjusted when the vehicle is stopped.
