Headlight screen adjustment solenoid

With conventional xenon headlights, the gas discharge bulbs only
generate the dipped beam. The „bi-xenon" features makes it pos‐
sible to generate both the dipped beam and the main beam with
„one" gas discharge bulb. To achieve this, an electromechanical
adjuster ( left headlight screen adjustment solenoid -N395- / right
headlight screen adjustment solenoid -N396- ) uncovers the
screened area of the dipped beam on actuation of the main beam
function, thus producing main beam light distribution.
