Headlight Beam Adjustment
1. Place the vehicle on a
level surface with the
headlight approximately
25 ft. (7.6 m) from a
wall.
2. Measure the distance
from the floor to the
center of the headlight
and make a mark on the
wall at the same height.
3. Apply the brakes. Turn
the key on. Turn the
headlights on.
4. Observe the headlight aim. The most intense part of the headlight beam should be aimed

while performing this step.
5. If a headlight needs adjustment, access the adjustment screw under the hood or through
the wheel well.
6. Loosen the screw, adjust the headlight, and tighten the screw.
