Headlamp Aiming
Your vehicle has the composite headlamp system. These
headlamps have horizontal and vertical aim indicators.
The
aim
has been pre-set at the factory and should need
no further adjustment.
If your vehicle is damaged in an accident and the
headlamp
aim
seems to be affected, see your Buick
dealer. Headlamps on damaged vehicles may require
recalibration of the horizontal aim by your Buick dealer.
To check the aim, the vehicle should be properly
prepared as follows:
0

level surface.
0
The vehicle should not have any snow, ice or mud
attached to it.
0

one person or 160 lbs. (75 kg) on the driver's seat.
0
Tires should be properly inflated.
0
The horizontal indicator should read "0."
NOTICE:

~~
