cause excessive heat build-up
which may cause damage to the
headlamp.

cardboard or equivalent in front
of the headlamp not being
adjusted. This allows only the
beam of light from the headlamp

the hood near each headlamp
assembly.
The adjustment screw can be
turned with an E8 Torx

aimed to the horizontal tape
line. Turn it clockwise or
counterclockwise to raise or
lower the angle of the beam.

bottom edge of the horizontal
tape line. The lamp on the

Fuses and Circuit
Breakers
The wiring circuits in the vehicle are
protected from short circuits by a
combination of fuses, circuit
breakers, and fusible thermal links.
This greatly reduces the chance of
fires caused by electrical problems.
Look at the silver-colored band
inside the fuse. If the band is broken
or melted, replace the fuse. Be sure
you replace a bad fuse with a new
one of the identical size and rating.
Fuses of the same amperage can
be temporarily borrowed from
another fuse location, if a fuse goes
out. Replace the fuse as soon as
you can.

component.
To remove fuses, hold the end of
the fuse between your thumb and
index finger and pull straight out.
