Default DME Adjustable Rear Toe Arm Washers

Can anyone tell me what the 2 black washers are for? Something to do with bump-steer adjustment? I've tried searching but i still don't 100% understand. From what i have read, depending on how low your car will be you use certain washers top/bottom...
I am running coilovers, and am not going ridiculously low. So can anyone help me please

Thanks.

Adjusts the angle of the toe arm relative to the direction of suspension travel. The greater the angle, the more toe changes through the travel. The position you have set it for (all washers beneath the arm) is for minimum toe change.

it is for the minimum toe change and the correct one unless you are running narrower tyres so you want to reduce the power-oversteer
