Get a towel, a tape measure, and some chalk.  Park on level ground ten
meters away from a vertical wall, and bounce each corner to settle the
suspension.  Sight along your tires to the wall and then from there
you can find (by moving up and in a measured amount) the points which
are exactly in front of the center of your headlights.  Aim them so
that the "corner" of the beam pattern is 10 cm straight down from that
point.  Use the towel to cover one headlight at a time, so you can see
the other's beam pattern more clearly.

The Bosch handbook has some diagrams.
