How to aim headlights?

I had the dealer replace the lowbeam bulb (now I know it is an easy and cheap DIY job)

But the aim is way off. Another trip back to the dealer?

Open the bonnnet, look at the top of the light you need to adjust.
Under a bit of rubber you will see a screw head marked with an arrow, one side says UP, one says DO (down). Adjust until your heart is content!

But I'd take a trip to the dealer, and make him do it right. Never should have sent you out like that.
