AIMING THE HEADLAMPS
Your vehicle is equipped with a Vehicle Headlamp Aim Device (VHAD)
on each headlamp body. Each headlamp may be properly aimed in the
horizontal direction (left/right) and the vertical position (up/down).
A non-zero bubble reading does not necessarily indicate out-of-aim
headlamps. If your vehicle is not positioned on a level surface, the slope
will be included in the level indicator. Therefore, vertical headlamp
adjustment should be performed only when beam direction appears to be
incorrect.
You will need one E8 Torx socket to make the adjustments.
If the vehicle has been in an accident, the vehicle's front structure
should be properly aligned before aiming the headlamps.
