ABSTRACT:
The headlight is used as a high beam headlight and has a light source (12) propagating light that is reflected by a reflector (10) as a light beam, which produces maximum illumination intensities that do not exceed legally prescribed maximum illumination intensities. The headlight light is designed so that the high maximum illumination intensities permissible in Europe according to the ECE Rules are produced by the light beam issuing from it. A screen device (20,30) is insertable in this headlight, by which a portion of the light issuing from the light source (12) to the reflector (10) is blocked and thus prevented from reaching the reflector. Because of that the maximum illumination intensities produced by the light beam issuing from the headlight are reduced so that the headlight can be used, for example in the USA or Japan, where reduced maximum illumination intensities are permitted in comparison to those in Europe, by insertion of the screen device in the otherwise unchanged headlight.
