Adjusting Headlamp Pattern - Volvo S60 S60R Owner's Manual

06 Starting and driving

Adjusting headlamp pattern

Correct light pattern for right or left-
hand traffic
A. Headlamp pattern for left-hand traffic.
B. Headlamp pattern for right-hand traffic.
So as not to dazzle oncoming drivers, the
06
headlamp beam pattern can be altered by
masking the headlamps. The quality of the
beam pattern may not be as good.
Headlamp masking
Copy the templates and transfer the pattern
to a self-adhesive, waterproof material such
as opaque tape or the like.
The mask is positioned using the dot (5) in
the headlamp lens as a reference point. The
reference measurement (X) indicates the dis-
144
tance from the dot (5) to the corner of the
mask, marked with an arrow.
After copying the templates located on the
next page, check the measurements so that
the reference measurements cover enough
of the beam pattern.
