- 25 ft (7.6 m).
- Horizontal reference line.
- Park the vehicle directly in front of a wall
or screen on a level surface,
approximately 25 ft (7.6 m) away.
- Measure the height of the headlamp
passing beam optical center from the
ground and mark an 8 ft (2.4 m)
horizontal reference line on the vertical
wall or screen at this height.
Note: To see a clearer light pattern
for
adjusting, block the light from one headlamp
while adjusting the other.
- Switch on the low beam headlamps to
light the wall or screen and open the
hood.
- On the wall or screen, observe a flat zone
of high intensity light at the top of the
right-hand portion of the beam pattern.
If the top edge of the high intensity light
zone is not at the horizontal reference
line, adjust the headlamp.
- Locate the vertical adjuster on each
headlamp. Turn the adjuster either
clockwise or counterclockwise to aim the
headlamp.
- Close the hood and switch off the lamps.
Horizontal Aim Adjustment
Your vehicle does not require horizontal aim
as it is non-adjustable.
