Before performing aiming adjustment, check the following:

Ensure all tires are inflated to correct pressure.

Place vehicle and screen on level surface.

Ensure there is no load in vehicle other than the driver (or equivalent weight placed in driver's position).

Coolant and engine oil filled to correct level, and fuel tank full.

Remove cargo and/or luggage to maintain an unloaded vehicle condition.

Confirm spare tire, jack and tools are properly stowed.

Carefully wipe off any dirt from headlamp lens.
CAUTION: Do not use organic solvent (thinner, gasoline etc.)

Place a driver or equivalent weight of 68.5 kg (150 lb) on the driver seat.

By hand, bounce the front and rear of the vehicle to settle the suspension and eliminate any static load.

Place the front tires in the straight ahead position.

Confirm headlamp aiming switch is set to "0" (zero) position.

Aim each headlamp individually and ensure other headlamp beam pattern is blocked from screen.
