Vertical aim adjustment

1. Park the vehicle on
a level surface
approximately 7.6
meters (25 feet) from
a vertical wall or
screen directly in front
of it.

2. Measure the height
from the center of your
headlamp to the
ground and mark an
2.4 meters (8 foot)
horizontal reference line on the vertical wall or
screen at this height (a piece of masking tape works
well). The center of the lamp is marked by a 3.0 mm
circle on the headlamp lens.

3. Turn on the low beam headlamps to illuminate the
wall or screen and open the hood.

4. On the wall or screen you will observe a distinct
line of high intensity light. If this is not centered on
the horizontal reference line, the beam will need to
be adjusted.

5. Locate the vertical adjuster on each headlamp,
then use a 6 mm wrench or screwdriver to turn the
adjuster either counterclockwise (to adjust up) or
clockwise (to adjust down) centering the light on
the horizontal reference line.

6. HORIZONTAL AIM IS NOT REQUIRED FOR THIS
VEHICLE AND IS NON-ADJUSTABLE.

7. Close the hood and turn off the lamps.
