Headlamp Aiming

Your vehicle has a headlamp system equipped with

horizontal and vertical aim indicators. The aim has been

pre

-set at the factory and should need no further

adjustment. This is true even though your vertical and

horizontal aim indicators may not fall exactly on

the “0” (zero) marks on their scales.

If your vehicle is damaged in an accident, the headlamp

aim may be affected. Aim adjustment may be necessary

if it is difficult to see lane markers (for horizontal aim), or

if oncoming drivers flash their high beams at you

(for vertical aim). If you believe your headlamps need to

be re

-aimed, we recommend that you take it to your dealer

for service; however, it is possible for you to re

-aim your

headlamps as described in the following procedure.

NOTICE:

To make sure your headlamps are aimed

properly, read all the instructions before

beginning. Failure to follow these instructions

could cause damage to headlamp parts.
