Test pattern with dipped headlights
Testing may also be carried out with dipped headlights switched
on. Nevertheless, said dynamic main beam test pattern is prefer‐
red.
For checking dipped headlight it is not necessary to use the ve‐
hicle diagnostic tester .
Headlight adjustment, on the other hand, can only be carried out
using the test pattern with dynamic main beam. The controller
only uses the DLA main beam distribution test program.
