    (Vertical direction) Horizontal center line +/- 50 mm (+/- 2.0 inches) 

  3. When adjusting headlight, disconnect the other headlight harness.
    CAUTION: Do not cover a headlight for more than three minutes to prevent the plastic headlight lens from deformation.
  4. There is no horizontal aim adjustment. Horizontal aim is preset and does not require adjustment. High-beam pattern should be correct when the low-beams are adjusted properly.
