Just tested it and as a couple of you suspected removing the eTag from the windscreen made absolutely no difference.

At least we can put that myth to rest

Will need to adjust them manually I suppose.

Manually adjusting!!!..Never done it but this how I've believe it's done.

In the engine bay on each side above each headlights there is a slot about 13mm" X 25". Down throught the slot, about 100mm, there is a phillps screw adjustment.
With the headlights dimmed and the vehicle parked on a level surface about 2m from a wall, note where the lights hits the wall. Using a long phillps screw driver turn the screw clockwise to raise headlights and the opposite to lower (approx 2.5 turns adjust them 50mm). Road test and readjust as necessary.

Finally got round to booking my Jeep in with our local dealer to get this sorted. They said that the headlights needed to be aimed down manually as they were set too high.
The auto levelling was working okay but they were clearly set too high from delivery. So tonight I'll see how it goes.

Just upset this was not done in the first place before delivery.
