10-28 Vehicle Care
To adjust the vertical aim:
1. Open the hood. See Hood on
page 10 7 for more information.
2. Locate the aim dot on the lens of
the low beam headlamp.
3. Measure the distance from the
ground to the aim dot on the
low beam headlamp. Record the
distance.
4. At the wall, measure from the
ground upward (A) to the
recorded distance from
Step 3 and mark it.
5. Draw or tape a horizontal line (B)
on the wall the width of the
vehicle at the height of the mark
in Step 4.
Notice: Do not cover a headlamp
to improve beam cut-off when
aiming. Covering a headlamp may
cause excessive heat build-up
which may cause damage to the
headlamp.
6. Turn on the low-beam
headlamps and place a piece
of cardboard or something
equivalent in front of the
headlamp not being adjusted.
This allows only the beam of
light from the headlamp being
adjusted to be seen on the flat
surface.
