State inspection stations will allow a vertical reading of plus 0.76 degrees or minus 0.76 degrees from the center of the bubble. It is recolnmended that the upper limit not exceed plus 0.4 degrees from the center of the bubble.

The vehicle should not have any snow, ice, or mud attached to it. 0 If you find that the headlamp aiming needs adjustment, follow these steps: Start with the vertical headlamp aim.
