Headlight adjustment (Skoda Yeti 5L)

1. Before you begin adjusting the headlights, do the following:

• place the car on a horizontal surface;
• replace damaged diffusers and mirrors, as well as blackened incandescent lamps;
• check and, if necessary, adjust the tire pressure;
• make sure the vehicle is not overloaded (has a curb weight and the driver's seat has a load of 75 kg);
• check the correct installation of the headlights relative to the hood (gaps, see Specifications to Chapter 11);
• turn on the low beam and turn the headlight range control several times (if available) to the extreme values, then return it to the "0" position;
• set the screen for adjustment along the longitudinal axis of the vehicle parallel to the plane on which the vehicle is located. Set the screen to the headlight adjustment value (e);
• on models with xenon headlights, clear the fault memory and apply the basic headlight adjustment settings.

2. When adjusting the headlights, the border between light and shadow should be on the horizontal line of the screen (1 in the illustration), and the point (2) of intersection of the horizontal and inclined boundaries must be on the same vertical line with the central point (3). After correct adjustment, the center of the low beam must be on the central point (3). When using old adjustment screens with an inclined line of 15°, it should be neglected.

Note: To help determine the breaking point, have an assistant close and open the left side of the headlight several times.

3. There are screws on the top side of the headlight to adjust it (see illustration). First adjust the headlight height by turning the screw (2), and then adjust the headlight horizontally by turning the screw (1).



4. When adjusting the fog lights, the border of light and shadow should be on the horizontal line (see illustration).



5. A screw is used to adjust the height of the fog light (see illustration). Lateral adjustment is not provided. The tilt value for the fog lamp is -2.1%.
