ground upward the recorded distance from Step 2
and draw or tape a horizontal line the width of
the vehicle.

piece of cardboard or equivalent in front of the
headlamp not being aimed. This should allow only
the beam of light from the headlamp being
aimed to be seen on the at surface.Notice:Do not cover a headlamp to improve beam
cut-off when aiming. Covering a headlamp may
cause excessive heat build-up which may cause
damage to the headlamp.

headlamp beam is aimed to the horizontal tape line.
The top edge of the cut-off should be positioned
at the bottom edge of the horizontal tape line.

type of bulbs to use.
For any bulb changing procedure not listed in this

system operates at a very high voltage. If you
try to service any of the system components,

different shade than it was originally. This is normal.

Halogen bulbs have pressurized gas inside and
can burst if you drop or scratch the bulb. You or
others could be injured. Be sure to read and
