Lights Headlamp aim adjustment The headlamps on your vehicle can only be vertically adjusted. Your vehicle does not require horizontal aim adjustments. To adjust the headlamps: 1. Park your vehicle on a level surface about 7.6 meters (25 feet) away from a vertical plain surface (3). Check your headlamp alignment at night or in a dark area so that you can see the headlamp beam pattern. • (1) Eight feet • (2) Center height of lamp to ground • (3) Twenty-five feet • (4) Horizontal reference line 2. The center of the headlamp has a 3.0 mm circle on the lens. Measure the height from the center of your headlamp to the ground (2) and mark a 2.4 meter (8 foot) long horizontal line on the plain surface (1) at this height (masking tape work well). 3. Turn on the low beam headlamps. The brightness part of the light should be below the horizontal line (4). If its above the line the headlamp will need to be adjusted. 4. Open the hood. 26
