LOW BEAM AND HIGH BEAM
NOTE:
- Basic illuminating area for evaluation and/or adjustment should be within range shown on aiming chart.
- Use adjustment screw to perform aiming adjustment.
- Ensure fog lamps are turned off.
- 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 a tape etc. The lens is made of resin.
- 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 between the headlamp center and the adjustment screen.
- Face the front of the vehicle to the screen and measure distance between the headlamp center and the screen surface.

- 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.
