FRONT FOG LAMP AI MING ADJUSTMENT
DescriptionINFOID:0000000006213992
PREPARATION BEFORE ADJUSTING
NOTE:
 For details, refer to the regulations in your own country.
 Perform aiming if the vehicle front body has been repaired and/or the headlamp assembly has been
replaced.
Before performing aiming adjustm ent, check the following.  Adjust the tire pressure to the specification.
 Fill with fuel, engine coolant and each oil.
 Maintain the unloaded vehicle condition. (Remove luggage from the passenger compartment and the trunk
room.)
NOTE:
Do not remove the temporary tire, jack and on-vehicle tool.
 Wipe out dirt on the headlamp. CAUTION:
Never use organic solvent (thinner, gasoline etc.)
 Ride alone on the driver seat.
AIMING ADJUSTMENT SCREW
 Turn the aiming adjusting screw for adjustment.
 For the position and direction of the adjusting screw, refer to the figure.
NOTE:
A screwdriver or hexagonal wrench [6 mm (0.24 in)] can be used
for adjustment.
Aiming Adjustment ProcedureINFOID:0000000006213993
1. Place the screen. NOTE:
 Stop the vehicle facing the wall.
 Place the board on a plain road vertically.
2. Face the vehicle with the screen. Maintain 10 m (32.8 ft) between the front fog lamp center and the
screen.
3. Start the engine. Turn the front fog lamp ON. NOTE:
Shut off the headlamp light with the board to pr event from illuminating the adjustment screen.
CAUTION:
Never cover the lens surface with a tape etc. The lens is made of resin.
4. Adjust the cutoff line height (A) with the aiming adjus tment screw so that the distance (X) between the hor-
izontal center line of front fog lamp (H) and (A) becomes 200 mm (7.87 in).

OUTLINE
Each illumination lamp is controlled by each function of BCM, IPDM E/R and combination meter.
Control by BCM Combination switch reading function
 Headlamp control function
Control by IPDM E/R Relay control function
Control by combination meter Meter illumination control function (Refer to MWI-16, "METER ILLUMINATION CONTROL : System Descrip-
tion".)
ILLUMINATION CONTROL
 BCM detects the combination switch conditi on by the combination switch reading function.
 BCM transmits position light request signal to IPDM E/R and combination meter according to tail lamp ON
condition.
Tail lamp ON condition- Lighting switch 1ST
- Lighting switch 2ND
- Lighting switch AUTO, and the auto light function ON judgment
- Lighting switch AUTO, with the front fog lamp switch ON and the ignition switch ON
 IPDM E/R turns the integrated tail lamp relay ON acco rding to position light request signal. It provides the
power supply to each illumination lamp.
 Combination meter enters in the nighttime mode accord ing to position light request signal. Under the night-
time mode the combination meter controls the illu minance by controlling each illumination lamp (ground
side).
