Volkswagen Touran Owners Manual: Masking or switching over headlights for driving abroad

First read and observe the introductory information and safety warnings 

If you have to drive a right-hand drive vehicle in a left-hand drive country, or vice versa, the asymmetric dipped beam headlights may dazzle oncoming traffic. Therefore, the headlights must be masked or switched over if you are driving abroad.

The orientation of the headlights can be adjusted using the Travel mode menu option in the sub-menu Lights & Vision in the Settings menu in the instrument cluster   .

In those vehicles where the headlights cannot be adjusted via the menu, you must apply stickers to certain parts of the headlight lenses or have the headlights adjusted by a qualified workshop. A qualified workshop can provide you with further information. Volkswagen recommends using a Volkswagen dealership for this purpose.

The use of the travel mode or of the stickers is only permissible if the period of use is limited. Please contact a qualified workshop for a permanent alteration. Volkswagen recommends using a Volkswagen dealership for this purpose.
