Default A6 headlight aiming

the car is a european spec A6 with regular projector type headlights, hence the tiny 1.9 litre diesel engine!
I have noticed that the low beams are aimed a little bit too low for my liking. there are two hex key adjusters on top of the lights; only one of which seems to do anything.
I have adjusted the inboard ones and this seems to have raised the low beams but now the high beams are cross-eyed and pointing too high.
can anybody tell me what the other hex key adjustment is for and is there a seperate adjustment for the high beams/ lateral adjustment?

many thanks for any assistance.
