    Standard value: (Vertical direction) Horizontal center line ± 50.5 mm (± 2.0 inches) (0.38 degrees angle) 

    CAUTION: Do not cover a headlight for more than three minutes to prevent the plastic headlight lens deformation.
    NOTE: 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.
