section, contact your dealer service department.
High Intensity Discharge (HID) Lighting
(If Equipped)
CAUTION:
The low beam High Intensity Discharge lighting
system operates at a very high voltage. If you try
to service any of the system components, you
could be seriously injured. Have your dealer or
a qualified technician service them.
Halogen Bulbs

7. After removing the wiring harness connector from
the headlamp bulb socket, replace the bulb assembly.
Reconnect it to the wiring harness and reinstall
the headlamp bulb assembly back into the
headlamp housing.
8. After reinstalling the bulb and socket, reinstall
the rubber cover. Make sure it fully covers the
headlamp socket.
9. To replace the high
-beam bulb, turn the bulb socket
counterclockwise to unlock the socket from the lamp
housing. Follow the instructions in Step 6 through 8
to install the new bulb.Headlamp Aiming
Your vehicle has a visual optical headlamp aiming
system equipped with horizontal aim indicators. The
aim has been pre
-set at the factory and should need
no further adjustment. This is true even though your
horizontal aim indicators may not fall exactly on
the ª0º (zero) marks on their scales.

6-40
If your vehicle is damaged in an accident, the headlamp
aim may be affected. Aim adjustment to the low beam
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 your vehicle 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.
The vehicle should be properly prepared as follows:

The vehicle should be placed so the headlamps are
25 ft. (7.6 m) from a light colored wall or other
flat surface.

The vehicle must have all four tires on a perfectly
level surface which is level all the way to the wall or
other flat surface.

The vehicle should be placed so it is perpendicular
to the wall or other flat surface.

The vehicle should not have any snow, ice or mud
attached to it.

The vehicle should be fully assembled and all other
work stopped while headlamp aiming is being done.

The vehicle should be normally loaded with a full
tank of fuel and one person or 160 lbs. (75 kg) on
the driver's seat.

Tires should be properly inflated.

Start the vehicle and rock it to level the suspension.
Headlamp aiming is done with the vehicle low beam
lamps. The high beam lamps will be correctly aimed
if the low beam lamps are aimed properly.

4. Turn on the low beam headlamps and place a piece of
cardboard or equivalent in front of the headlamp not
being aimed. This should allow the beam cut
-off of
the headlamp being aimed to be seen on the flat surface.
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.
5. Turn the vertical aiming screw (C) until the
headlamp beam is aimed to the horizontal tape line.
