  1. Place the screen on the same level and flat surface as the vehicle.
    NOTE: Surface should be free of any debris that would cause a difference in vehicle side-to-side height.
  2. Face the front of the vehicle to the screen and measure distance between the headlamp center and the screen surface.

  3. Block the opposite headlamp from projecting a beam pattern onto the adjustment screen, using a suitable object. Aim each headlamp individually.
    CAUTION: Do not cover the lens surface with tape or plastic etc. The lens is made of resin.
  4. Start the engine. Turn the headlamps on.
  5. Determine the preferred vertical aim range dimensions, using the aiming chart.
  6. Measure the projected beam within the aim evaluation segment on the screen.
  7. Adjust the beam pattern of each headlamp until the aim evaluation segment (the area relative to both the highest and lowest cutoff line height) is positioned within the vertical aim range dimensions shown on the aiming chart.
