Subaru Forester: Instruments and controls / Headlight beam leveler
The LED headlights produce more light
than conventional halogen headlights.
When the vehicle is carrying a heavy load
and the headlight beams are angled
upwards, the driver of an oncoming vehicle
may experience glare.
To prevent this, the automatic headlight
beam leveler adjusts the headlights to the
optimum height automatically depending
on the load the vehicle is carrying.
CAUTION
In certain circumstances, the headlights
may become misaligned, and
the headlight beam leveler will not
reset them to the proper angle. This
may occur after transporting your
vehicle on a flat-bed truck, or if the
vehicle is parked and restarted on
different angles. In such cases, have
the headlight alignment checked by
a SUBARU dealer.
