Automatic Headlight Beam Adjustment; Turn Signal/ Headlight Dimmer/Parking Light/Flasher Lever - Porsche Cayman Owner's Manual

Automatic Headlight Beam
Adjustment
Vehicles with Bi-Xenon headlights feature auto-
matic headlight beam adjustment.
When the ignition is switched on, the level of the
headlight beam automatically changes in accor-
dance with the vehicle load.
The level of the headlight beam is automatically
kept constant during acceleration and braking.
Checking operation
1. Switch the low beam on.
2. Insert ignition key and switch ignition on.
The light beam first dips all the way down and
is then adapted to the vehicle load.
If these test items are not met, the headlight beam
adjustment must be checked by an authorized
Porsche dealer.
