Adjust beams

Hi, is there an article on how to adjust the headlight beams on a 986 ?

I've had a look but can't seem to find anything.

Thanks
Terry

Ah ok I found how to adjust the beams (Bently book 94-7)... but is there a way to know that they are set just right ? If I remember correctly I read somewhere that if your beams are shone onto a wall ............. then it gets all murky and I forget the ending.

Thanks
Terry

The owners manual has a detailed procedure for adjustment.
