ADJUSTMENT

1. HEADLIGHT BEAM ADJUSTMENT

CAUTION: Turn off the light before adjusting the headlight beam level. If it is necessary to inspect the beam level, do not keep the light on for two minutes or more.

1. Before checking the headlight beam level, be sure of the following:
- the area around the headlight has not sustained any scratches, damage or other type of deformation.
- Vehicle is parked on a level surface.
- The inflation pressure of tires is correct.
- Vehicle's fuel tank is fully filled.

2. Bounce the vehicle several times to normalize the suspension.
3. Make certain that someone is seated in the driver's seat.
4. Measure the distance between the low beam bulb centers, and the height of the bulb center.
5. Turn the headlights on and then adjust the low beam pattern.





1. Adjust the vertical beam level (A).
2. Adjust the horizontal beam level (B).






CAUTION: Check the bulb center mark on the inner side of the lens since the low beam bulb center will differ according to bulb shape.
