Headlamp aim adjustment

The headlamps on your vehicle can only be vertically adjusted. Your
vehicle does not require horizontal aim adjustments.

To adjust the headlamps:

1. Park your vehicle on a level
surface about 7.6 meters (25 feet)
away from a vertical plain surface
(3). Check your headlamp alignment
at night or in a dark area so that
you can see the headlamp beam
pattern.
• (1) Eight feet
• (2) Center height of lamp to

ground

• (3) Twenty-five feet
• (4) Horizontal reference line
2. The center of the headlamp has a 3.0 mm circle on the lens. Measure
the height from the center of your headlamp to the ground (2) and mark
a 2.4 meter (8 foot) long horizontal line on the plain surface (1) at this
height (masking tape works well).

3. Turn on the low beam headlamps.
The brightest part of the light
should be below the horizontal line
(4). If it is above the line the
headlamp will need to be adjusted.

4. Open the hood.
