Cadillac 2008 Escalade EXT Automobile User Manual


 
To adjust the vertical aim:
1. Open the hood. See Hood Release on page 5-11
for more information.
2. Locate the center
of the projector
lens of the
low-beam
headlamp.
3. Record the distance from the ground to the
center of the projector lens of the low-beam
headlamp.
4. At a wall, measure from the ground upward (A) to
the recorded distance from Step 3 and mark it.
5. Draw or tape a horizontal line (B) on the wall
the width of the vehicle at the height of the mark
in Step 4.
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.
6. Turn on the low-beam headlamps and place a
piece of cardboard or equivalent in front of the
headlamp not being adjusted. This allows only the
beam of light from the headlamp being adjusted
to be seen on the flat surface.
