HEADLAMP AIM ADJUSTMENT
The headlamps are designed to be mechanically aimed, but can also be
aimed visually by doing the following:
1. Park your vehicle on a level
surface about 25 feet
(7.6 meters) away from a
vertical plain surface (3).
Check your headlamp alignment
at night or in a dark area so
that you can see the headlamp
beam pattern.
•(1) Eight feet
•(2) Center height of lamp to
ground
•(3) Twenty-five feet
•(4) Horizontal reference line
•(5) Center of headlamps
•(6) Center line of the vehicle
2. The center of the headlamp is marked either on the lens (a circle or
cross marker) or on the bulb shield, internal to the lamp (mark or
feature). Measure the height from the center of your headlamp to
the ground (2) and mark an 8 foot (2.4 meter) long horizontal line
on the wall or screen (1) at this height (masking tape works well).
3. Turn on the low beam
headlamps and open the hood.
4. Locate the high intensity area of
the beam pattern and place the
top edge of the intensity zone
even with the horizontal
reference line (4). If the top
edge of the high intensity area
is not even with the horizontal
line, follow the next step to
adjust it.

6. In addition to the horizontal line
marked in step 2, a pair of
vertical lines (5) must be
marked at the center line of the
headlamps on the wall or
screen.
7. On the wall or screen, locate the high intensity area of the beam
pattern. The left edge of the high intensity area should be even with
the vertical line corresponding to the headlamp under adjustment. If
the left edge of the high intensity area is not even with the vertical
line, follow the next step to adjust it.
8. Locate the horizontal adjuster
for each headlamp. Usea4mm

area even with the vertical line
corresponding to the headlamp
under adjustment.
