The country-specific US version incorporates the following functions that differ from the EU
version:
- High beam headlights. If Bi-xenon bulbs are fitted, the high beam headlight function is
performed only by the Bi-xenon lights and not by the halogen lights in the inner reflectors.
- Daytime lights. The daytime lights function is performed by the fiber-optic ring lights.
Workshop Hints
The lens is permanently bonded to the headlight unit casing. The headlight units are
adjustable along the x, y and z axes. Vertical adjustment of the headlight units is performed
by the inner socket-head adjuster screws. Horizontal adjustment of the headlight units is
performed by the outer socket-head adjuster screws.
• The bulbs in the halogen headlights can be replaced with the headlight unit in place.

N N o o t t e e : : It is suggested to mark the headlight location around the adjustment mounts and
attaching screws before removal.
• The headlight unit is removed by removing the top 2 screws from the front crosspanel
and the bottom 2 screws from the mounting bracket.
• The headlight unit is removed forwards and then lifted upwards, detaching one main har-
ness connection. The stepper motor for the Adaptive Headlights is replaceable.
• For installation, the headlamps must first be adjusted and aligned with the side panels
(slides in adjustment slots with bolts loose, up/dn adjustment by a threaded mount).
The bumper trim panel is then aligned to the headlamp units.
