15. INITIALIZATION RELATED TO POWER WINDOW CONTROL SYSTEM
(a) INITIALIZE POWER WINDOW CONTROL SYSTEM (POWER WINDOW REGULATOR MOTOR (ALL DOORS))
CAUTION: When the power window regulator motor is reinstalled or replaced, the power window control system must be initialized. Functions such as the auto up/down, jam protection and key-off do not operate if the initialization is not performed.
HINT: When the battery is replaced, it is not necessary to initialize the power window regulator motor.
NOTICE:
- When the power window regulator motor is replaced, DTC B2313 is output. Clear the DTC after the initialization.
- When performing initialization, do not perform any other procedures.
- After a door glass or a door glass run has been replaced, the jam protection function may operate unexpectedly when the auto up function is used, due to detection of a value different from the operation learned value of the door glass movement speed. In such cases, the auto up function can be resumed by repeating the following operation at least 5 times:
1. Open the power window by fully pushing down the power window switch.
2. Close the power window by fully pulling up the power window switch and holding it at the auto up position.
- If the initialization is not completed properly, the LIN communication system may have a malfunction.
(1) Initialization procedures when replacing the power window regulator motor with a new one:
1. Connect the battery and turn the engine switch on (IG) (at this time, the LED on the power window switch blinks to indicate that it is ready for initialization).
2. Fully open the window by fully pushing the power window switch, and hold the switch for 1 second or more after the window is fully opened.
3. Fully close the power window by fully pulling the power window switch, and hold the switch for 1 second or more after the window is fully closed to reset the glass position. The LED on the power window switch stops blinking and illuminates to indicate that the initialization is complete.
(2) Initialization procedures when removing/installing the power window regulator motor:
1. Connect the battery and turn the engine switch on (IG).
2. Fully close the power window by fully pulling the power window switch, and hold the switch for 6 seconds or more after the window is fully closed (if the power window does not move or stops halfway even when the switch is fully pulled, release the switch and fully pull it again).

16. INITIALIZATION RELATED TO SLIDING ROOF SYSTEM
(a) INITIALIZE SLIDING ROOF DRIVE GEAR
NOTICE:
- When the sliding roof glass is replaced or removed and installed, or the drive gear assembly is replaced, the sliding roof drive gear requires initialization (pulse sensor initial position setting), as the glass position cannot be determined. If initialization is not performed, the auto slide open and close/tilt up and down function may not operate, or the sliding roof may move in reverse or become misaligned.
- During initialization, do not apply a physical shock, such as opening/closing a door or driving the vehicle at 5 km/h (3.10 mph) or more, to the vehicle and do not perform the following electrical operations:
1. Cranking the engine
2. Turning the engine switch from on (IG) to off
3. Operating the power window switches
4. Operating the window defogger switch
5. Operating the blower switch
6. Locking/Unlocking the door
7. Operating the headlight dimmer switch
HINT: When the cable is disconnected and reconnected to the negative (-) battery terminal or the drive gear connector is disconnected and reconnected, the sliding roof drive gear (pulse sensor initial position setting) initialization is not necessary.

17. ADJUSTMENT FOR HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY
(a) VEHICLE PREPARATION FOR HEADLIGHT AIMING ADJUSTMENT
(1) Prepare the vehicle:

- Ensure there is no damage to the body around the headlights.
- Fill the fuel tank.
- Make sure that the oil is filled to the specified level.
- Make sure that the coolant is filled to the specified level.
- Inflate the tires to the appropriate pressure.
- Unload the trunk and vehicle, ensuring that the spare tire, tools, and jack are also removed.
- Have a person of average weight (68 kg, 150 lb) sit in the driver seat.
- Vehicles with height adjustable suspension should have the vehicle height set to the lowest setting prior to adjusting the headlight aim.
- Vehicles with manually adjustable headlights should be adjusted to "0".

(b) PREPARATION FOR HEADLIGHT AIMING (Using a screen)





(1) Prepare the vehicle:

- Place the vehicle in a location that is dark enough to clearly observe the cutoff line. The cutoff line is a distinct line, below which light from the headlights can be observed and above which it cannot.
- Place the vehicle at a 90° angle to the wall.
- Create a 7.62 m (25.0 ft.) distance between the vehicle (headlight bulb center) and the wall.
- Make sure that the vehicle is on a level surface.
- Bounce the vehicle up and down to settle the suspension.
NOTE: A distance of 7.62 m (25.0 ft.) between the vehicle (headlight bulb center) and the wall is necessary for proper aim adjustment. If unavailable, secure a distance of exactly 3 m (9.84 ft.) for the check and adjustment. (The target zone will change with the distance, so follow the instructions in the illustration).
(2) Prepare a piece of thick white paper approximately 2 m (6.56 ft.) (height) x 4 m (13.1 ft.) (width) to use as a screen.
(3) Draw a vertical line down the center of the screen (V line).
(4) Set the screen as shown in the illustration.





HINT:
- Stand the screen perpendicular to the ground.
- Align the V line on the screen with the center of the vehicle.





(5) Draw base lines (H, V LH, and V RH Lines) on the screen as shown in the illustration.
- The base lines differ for "low beam inspection" and "high beam inspection".
- Mark the headlight bulb center marks on the screen. If the center mark cannot be observed on the headlight, use the center of the headlight bulb or the name of the manufacturer marked on the headlight as the center mark.

1. H Line (Headlight):
Draw a horizontal line across the screen so that it passes through the center marks. The H line should be at the same height as the headlight bulb center marks of the low beam headlights.
2. V LH Line, V RH Line (Center mark position of the left-hand (LH) and right-hand (RH) headlights):

(c) HEADLIGHT AIMING INSPECTION





(1) Cover the headlight or disconnect the connector of the headlight on the opposite side to prevent light from the headlight that is not being inspected from affecting the headlight aiming.
NOTE: Do not keep the headlight covered for more than 3 minutes. The headlight lens is made of synthetic resin, which may melt or be damaged due to excessive heat.
HINT: When checking the aim of the high beam headlight, cover the low beam headlight or disconnect the connector.
(2) Start the engine.
(3) Turn on the headlight and check if the cutoff line matches the preferred cutoff line in the following illustration.





HINT:
- Since the low beam and high beam headlight on each side have separate reflectors, it is necessary to check and adjust the aim separately for both.
- If the alignment distance is 7.62 m (25.0 ft.):
The low beam cutoff line should be within 79.5 mm (3.13 in.) above or below the H line as well as 79.5 mm (3.13 in.) left or right of the V line.
- If the alignment distance is 3 m (9.84 ft.):
The low beam cutoff line should be within 71.5 mm (2.81 in.) above or below the H line as well as 71.5 mm (2.81 in.) left or right of the V line.
- If the alignment distance is 7.62 m (25.0 ft.):
The high beam center of intensity should be within 79.5 mm (3.13 in.) above or below the H line as well as 79.5 mm (3.13 in.) left or right of the V line.
- If the alignment distance is 3.0 m (9.84 ft.):
The high beam center of intensity should be within 71.5 mm (2.81 in.) above or below the H line as well as 71.5 mm (2.81 in.) left or right of the V line.

(d) HEADLIGHT AIMING ADJUSTMENT





(1) Adjust the aim vertically:
Adjust the aim of each headlight to the specified range by turning each aiming screw with a screwdriver.
NOTE: The final turn of the aiming screw should be made in the clockwise direction. If the screw is tightened excessively, loosen it and then retighten it, so that the final turn of the screw is in the clockwise direction.
- The low beam and high beam headlight are a unit. Adjusting the aim on the low beam to the correct position should also result in the high beam adjustment being correct.
- If it is not possible to correctly adjust headlight aim, check the bulb, headlight unit, and headlight unit reflector installation.
- The headlight aim moves up when turning the aiming screw clockwise, and moves down when turning the aiming screw counterclockwise.

18. ADJUSTMENT FOR FOG LIGHT ASSEMBLY
HINT: It is possible that a bulb is incorrectly installed, affecting fog light aim. Bulb installation should be considered prior to performing the adjustment procedure.

(a) VEHICLE PREPARATION FOR FOG LIGHT AIMING ADJUSTMENT
(1) Prepare the vehicle:

- Ensure there is no damage or deformation to the body around the fog lights.
- Fill the fuel tank.
- Make sure that the oil is filled to the specified level.
- Make sure that the coolant is filled to the specified level.
- Inflate the tires to the appropriate pressure.
- Unload the trunk and vehicle, ensuring that the spare tire, tools, and jack are also removed.
- Have a person of average weight (68 kg, 150 lb) sit in the driver seat.
- Vehicles with height adjustable suspension should have the vehicle height set to the lowest setting prior to adjusting the fog light aim.

(b) PREPARATION FOR FOG LIGHT AIMING





(1) Prepare the vehicle:

- Place the vehicle in a location that is dark enough to clearly observe the cutoff line. The cutoff line is a distinct line, below which light from the fog lights can be observed and above which it cannot.

- Create a 7.62 m (25.0 ft.) distance between the vehicle (fog light bulb center) and the wall.
- Make sure that the vehicle is on a level surface.
- Bounce the vehicle up and down to settle the suspension.
NOTE: A distance of 7.62 m (25.0 ft.) between the vehicle (fog light bulb center) and the wall is necessary for proper aim adjustment. If unavailable, secure a distance of exactly 3 m (9.84 ft.) for the check and adjustment. (The target zone will change with the distance, so follow the instructions in the illustration).
(2) Prepare a piece of thick white paper approximately 2.0 m (6.56 ft.) (height) x 4.0 m (13.1 ft.) (width) to use as a screen.
(3) Draw a vertical line down the center of the screen (V line).
(4) Set the screen as shown in the illustration.





HINT:
- Stand the screen perpendicular to the ground.
- Align the V line on the screen with the center of the vehicle.





(5) Draw base lines (H, V LH, and V RH lines) on the screen as shown in the illustration.
HINT: Mark the fog light bulb center marks on the screen. If the center mark cannot be observed on the fog light, use the center of the fog light bulb or the name of the manufacturer marked on the fog light as the center mark.

1. H line (Fog light height):
Draw a horizontal line across the screen so that it passes through the center marks. The H line should be at the same height as the fog light bulb center marks of the fog lights.
2. V LH Line, V RH Line (Center mark position of left-hand (LH) and right-hand (RH) fog lights):
Draw two vertical lines so that they intersect the H line at each center mark.

(c) INSPECT FOG LIGHT AIMING
(1) Cover the fog light or disconnect the connector of the fog light on the opposite side to prevent light from the fog light that is not being inspected from affecting the fog light aiming inspection.
NOTE: Do not keep the fog light covered for more than 3 minutes. The fog light lens is made of synthetic resin, which may melt or be damaged due to excessive heat.
(2) Start the engine.
(3) Turn on the fog light and check if the cutoff line falls within the specified area in the following illustration.





(d) ADJUST FOG LIGHT AIMING





(1) Adjust the aim vertically:
Adjust the aim of each fog light to the specified range by turning the aiming screw with a screwdriver.
NOTE: The final turn of the aiming screw should be made in the clockwise direction. If the screw is tightened excessively, loosen it and then retighten it, so that the final turn of the screw is in the clockwise direction.
