Usage tips
Word formation
'Einstellbar' (adjustable) comes from the verb 'einstellen' (to adjust). Here, the suffix '-bar' indicates that something can be adjusted; it does not mean that it is already set correctly.
EXAMPLE
Die Sitzhöhe ist einstellbar, aber für mich noch zu niedrig.
The seat height is adjustable, but it is still too low for me.
Range and increments
You can use 'von … bis …' (from … to …) to specify the adjustable range. 'Stufenlos einstellbar' (continuously adjustable) means that there are no fixed increments within that range.
EXAMPLE
Die Temperatur ist von 30 bis 90 Grad einstellbar.
The temperature is adjustable from 30 to 90 degrees.
Die Helligkeit der Lampe ist stufenlos einstellbar.
The brightness of the lamp is continuously adjustable.
