2012MY - Driving in Europe - Headlamp Adjustment

Quick question, for those who have done this before…

MY2012 Car

Service manual says pull the lever…

Light units have no lever…

Model of headlight

Can these be adjusted to drive in Europe? Bit flummoxed here

The MY12 has a "neutral" beam pattern (doesn't have a large nearside "pavement beam" that older units had) and so it doesn't need adjusting. Hence no lever.

I think it was a bad step as I think my 12-plate headlights aren't as good as the lights on my previous 08MY TDV8 which did have the lever because of the nearside pavement beam.

Edit: had no issues driving in France with the 12MY without adjustment. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Amazing - I can’t thank you enough for that! That really confused me but all makes sense now…!
