Headlamp Aiming

The vehicle has a visual optical headlamp aiming
system. The aim of the headlamps have been preset
at the factory and should need no further adjustment.

However, if the vehicle is damaged in a crash, the aim
of the headlamps can be affected and adjustment can
be necessary.

If oncoming vehicles flash their high beams at you, this
can mean the vertical aim of your headlamps needs to
be adjusted.

It is recommended that the vehicle is taken to your
dealer/retailer for service if the headlamps need to
be adjusted. It is possible however, to re-aim the
headlamps as described.
