Vehicle Care

Notice: Do not cover a headlamp
to improve beam cut-off when
aiming. Covering a headlamp may
cause excessive heat build-up
which may cause damage to the
headlamp.

6. Turn on the low-beam

headlamps and place a piece of
cardboard or equivalent in front
of the headlamp not being
adjusted. This allows only the
beam of light from the headlamp
being adjusted to be seen on the
flat surface.

7. Locate the vertical headlamp

aiming screws, which are under
the hood near each headlamp
assembly.

The adjustment screw can be
turned with a E8 Torx

®

socket.

8. Turn the vertical aiming screw

until the headlamp beam is
aimed to the horizontal tape line.
Turn it clockwise or
counterclockwise to raise or
lower the angle of the beam.

9. Make sure that the light from the

headlamp is positioned at the
bottom edge of the horizontal
tape line. The lamp on the
left (A) shows the correct
headlamp aim. The lamp on the
right (B) shows the incorrect
headlamp aim.

10. Repeat Steps 7 through 9 for

the opposite headlamp.
