LIGHTING SYSTEM ADJUSTMENT VERTICAL ADJUSTMENT RETRACTABLE HEADLIGHT ACTUATOR I Adjustment Headlight aiming 1. Adjust the tire air pressure to specification. 2. Turn on the retractor switch to raise the retractable head- 4 lights. 3. Position the unloaded vehicle on a flat level surface. 4. Adjust the headlights to meet local regulations by turning the two adjusting screws. Retractor hinge 1. Fully retracted the headlights. 2. Obtain the code number and deactivate the audio anti- theft function. (Refer to page T-120.) 3. Disconnect the negative battery cable. 4. Disconnect the actuator link. 5. Lower the retractor hinge until the hinge is stopped by the stop. 6. Adjust the stop so that the headlight lid is flush with the fender and hood. Gartner Banana
