Adjusting the headlight angle (BMW 5 Series E34)
Your vehicle has the ability to adjust the angle of the headlights depending on the load.
Do not exceed the maximum permissible load on the rear axle.
If the adjustment occurs within too wide limits, this indicates that the electronics have failed.
If necessary, the rear window of your car can be closed with a sunshade. To do this, press the switch (shown by arrow).
The system only operates when the interior temperature is above -5°C.
Regular curtains can also be installed (without electric drive) (on the rear window and side rear windows). Each curtain is pulled by the loop and fixed by the bottom edge.
