located at the top of the beam pattern.

headlamp. Use a suitable tool, for
example a screwdriver or hexagonal
socket, to turn the adjuster clockwise
or counterclockwise to adjust the
vertical aim of the headlamp. The
horizontal edge of the brighter light
should touch the horizontal reference
line.
6. Close the hood and switch off the lamps.

The horizontal aim of the headlamp beam
on your vehicle is not adjustable.

Switch all of the lamps and the
ignition off. Failure to follow this
warning could result in serious
personal injury. 1. Open the hood. See Opening and
Closing the Hood (page 211). 2. Remove the screws.
