I think you need to park on a level surface and have the headlight beam on a light wall (ideally)

ie. park on your driveway facing your garage door.

Once you do this you should be able to judge for your self what level the lights are at, and adjust accordingly.

If you are still unsure, snap a picture of your lights shining on a wall when the vehicle is level.
I am sure someone here will be able to guide you then.

Also be sure to check your manual, there has to be a OE spec page regarding leveling.
