Headlight Aiming

The headlights were properly aimed

when your car was new. You should

check their aim if you regularly carry

heavy items in the trunk or pull a

trailer. Each headlight assembly has
horizontal and vertical adjustment
indicators. These are set to their "0"
positions after the headlights are
aimed at the factory.

To check these settings:

1. Make sure the fuel tank is full.

Park the vehicle on level ground.

2. The driver or someone who

weighs the same should he sitting

in the driver's seat for all checks
and adjustments.
Load the trunk with the items you

normally carry.

HORIZONTAL ANGLE GAUGE

If you usually pull a trailer, load it as

you would normally and attach it to
the car. Push down on the front and
rear bumpers several times to make

sure the car is sitting normally.

3. Open the hood.

4. Check the horizontal angle gauge.

The line on the adjustment screw

indicator should line up with the
"0" mark on the gauge.

VERTICAL ANGLE GAUGE

5. Check the vertical angle gauge.

The bubble should be centered

underneath the longest scribe
mark on the gauge.
