ADJUSTING THE HEADLAMPS

The headlamps on your vehicle are properly aimed at the assembly plant.

If your vehicle has been in an accident, the alignment of your headlamps

should be checked by your authorized dealer.

Vertical 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 25 feet (7.6 meters) 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.

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

an 8 foot (2.4 m) long horizontal line on the plain surface (1) at this

height (masking tape works well).
