Adjusting Headlight Beam Angle?

I've read my manual front to back and I don't recall seeing the ability to adjust the low beam angle. As it sits right now mine is definitely angled too high. I constantly get people flashing their brights at me even though I'm on the low beams.

Is this something that can be done with the stalk in the cabin? Or is this a mechanical change? With the adaptive headlights, I'd have to imagine this is done electronically.

Thanks!

I have Adaptive Headlights as I suspect you do, too. Knurled knob - counter-clockwise is up, clockwise is down.

it's also easy to strip that little plastic knob with a screwdriver. i'd use a hex (6mm i believe).
