Morning,
Newbie to the forum..
Picked up a Grandland X 1.2 on Saturday , getting used to it however on way to work this morning in the dark , lights on AUTO and oncoming traffic kept flashing and one driver said I had full beam on - I checked and I hadn't , confirmed by flashing and putting full beam on (blue indicator on dash)

Are the lights just very bright ? can they been adjusted in height (maybe they are too high and need to be lowered ie when towing ?

Any advice would be great , got headache after other drivers either flashing or keeping their full beam on to try and tell me !!!!

Hi
Next to the Auto light control there are two dials - one alters the brightness of the dashboard etc and the other alters the height of the headlights.

I think there are 4 settings on it

0 : Front seats occupied
1 : All seats occupied
2 : All seats occupied and load compartment laden
3 : Drivers seat occupied and load compartment laden
