Vertical Aim Adjustment Procedure

1.

Park your vehicle on level ground
approximately 25 feet (7.6 meters)
from a wall or screen.

2. Measure the distance from the ground

to the center of the headlamp bulb and
mark an 8 foot (2.4 meter) long
horizontal reference line on the wall or
screen at this height.

Note: To see a clearer light pattern while
adjusting one headlamp, you may want to
block the light from the other headlamp.

3. Switch on the low beam headlamps

and open the hood.

4. On the wall or screen you will observe

a flat zone of high intensity light
located at the top of the beam pattern.
If the top edge of the flat zone of high
intensity light is not on the horizontal
reference line, adjust the aim of the
headlamp beam.

5. Locate the vertical adjuster on each

headlamp. Use a suitable tool, for
example a screwdriver or hexagonal
socket, to turn the adjuster clockwise
or counterclockwise to adjust the
vertical aim of the headlamp. The
horizontal edge of the brighter light
should touch the horizontal reference
line.

6. Close the hood and switch off the

lamps.

Horizontal Aim Adjustment

The horizontal aim of the headlamp beam
on your vehicle is not adjustable.
