AIMING THE HEADLAMPS

The headlamps on your vehicle are

properly aimed at the assembly

plant.
If your vehicle has been in an

accident the alignment of your

headlamps should be checked by a

qualified service technician.

Vertical aim adjustment

1. Park the vehicle on a level

surface approximately 7.6 meters

(25 feet) from a vertical wall or

screen directly in front of it.
2. Measure the height of the

headlamp bulb center from the

ground and mark a 2.5 meters

(8 foot) horizontal reference line on

the vertical wall or screen at this

height (a piece of masking tape

works well).
3. Turn on the low beam

headlamps to illuminate the wall or

screen and open the hood.
