Headlight Aiming
The headlights were properly aimed
when your vehicle was new. If you
regularly carry heavy items in the
luggage area or pull a trailer,
readjustment may be required.
Adjustments should be done by your
dealer or another qualified
technician.
The vertical angle of the headlights
can be adjusted. For more
information, see page
On vehicles with high voltage discharge
type low beam headlights
Your vehicle is equipped with an
automatic headlight adjusting
system that adjusts the vertical angle
of the headlights (low beam)
automatically. Refer to page
more information.
High Voltage Discharge Tube
Headlights
(For some types)
The low beam headlight bulbs are
high voltage discharge tube bulbs.
High voltage can remain in the
circuit even with the light switch off
and the key removed. Because of
this, you should not attempt to
examine or change a low beam
headlight bulb yourself. If a low
beam headlight bulb fails, take the
158 . vehicle to your dealer to have it
replaced.
158 for
Replacing a Headlight Bulb
On vehicles with halogen headlight
bulbs
Your vehicle has halogen headlight
bulbs. When replacing a bulb, handle
it by its base, and protect the glass
from contact with your skin or hard
objects. If you touch the glass, clean
it with denatured alcohol and a clean
cloth.
Halogen headlight bulbs get very hot
when lit. Oil, perspiration, or a
scratch on the glass can cause the
bulb to overheat and shatter.
