To adjust the headlight on a BMW Motorrad R 1300 GS:

1. Switch on the ignition.
2. Start the engine.
3. Use the tool from the onboard toolkit to turn the adjusting screw.
4. Adjust the headlight beam throw as needed.
5. If the motorcycle is later ridden with a lower load, return the headlight to its basic setting.
6. If unsure about the correct headlight beam throw, have it checked by a specialist workshop, preferably an authorized BMW Motorrad retailer.
