To adjust the vertical aim on the headlamps:
1. Open the hood. See Hood Release on page 5-11.
2. Measure the distance from the ground to the
aim dot on the low-beam headlamp. Record
the distance.
3. At the wall measure from the ground upward (A) to
the recorded distance from Step 3 and mark it.
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.
4. Draw or tape a horizontal line (B) on the wall the
width of the vehicle at the height of the mark in
Step 4.
5. Turn on the low-beam headlamps and place a
piece of cardboard or equivalent in front of the
headlamp not being adjusted. Do not place directly
on the headlamp. This allows only the beam of
light from the headlamp being adjusted to be seen
on the flat surface.
6. Locate the vertical headlamp aiming screws, which
are under the hood near each headlamp assembly.
The adjustment screw can be turned with a 6 mm
male hex.
7. Turn the vertical aiming screw until the headlamp
beam is aimed to the horizontal tape line. Turn it
clockwise or counterclockwise to raise or lower the
angle of the beam.
