VERTICAL AIM ADJUSTMENT
Your vehicle is fitted with eitherVOR(conventional halogen) orVOL
(High Intensity Discharge - HID) headlamps. The adjustment procedure
depends on the type of headlamps that are equipped on your vehicle.
VORorVOLis marked on the bottom of the headlampin the center of
the lamp. Please check the lens markings prior to adjusting the vehicle
aim.
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface approximately 7.6 meters (25 feet)
from a vertical wall or screen directly in front of it.
•(1) Eight feet
•(2)VOR– Measurement of the center height of lampto ground
VOL– Subtract 50 mm’s (2 inches) from the measurement of the
center height of the lampto ground
•(3) Twenty-five feet
•(4) Horizontal reference line

2.VOR:Measure the height from
the center of your headlampto the
ground and mark a 2.4 meter (8
foot) horizontal reference line on
the vertical wall or screen at this
height (a piece of masking tape
works well). The center of the lamp
is marked by a 3.0 mm circle on the
headlamplens.
VOL:Measure the height from the
center of your headlampto the
ground, subtract 50 mm’s, (2.1 inches), and mark a 2.4 meter (8 foot)
horizontal reference line on the vertical wall or screen at this height (a
piece of masking tape works well). The center of the lamp is marked by
a 3.0 mm circle on the headlamplens.
3. Turn on the low beam headlamps to illuminate the wall or screen and
open the hood.
4. On the wall or screen you will
observe a light pattern with a
distinct horizontal edge of high
intensity with a slight angle towards
the right. If this is not at the
horizontal reference line, the beam
will need to be adjusted.
5. Locate the vertical adjuster in
each headlamp, then use a 4 mm
socket/wrench to turn the adjuster
either counterclockwise (to adjust
down) or clockwise (to adjust up)
aligning the upper edge of the light
pattern up to the horizontal line.
6. HORIZONTAL AIM IS NOT
REQUIRED FOR THIS VEHICLE
AND IS NON-ADJUSTABLE.
7. Close the hood and turn off the lamps.

lamp performance, light brightness and pattern and safe visibility. The
correct bulbs will not damage the lampassembly or void the lamp
assembly warranty and will provide quality bulb burn time.

3. Pry back the topcorner of the
radiator cover to gain access to the
inner retaining pins. At the back of
the headlamp, pry up and remove
the two retainer pins to release the
headlampassembly from the vehicle
and pull headlamp forward.
4. Disconnect the electrical
connector by pulling downward.
5. Rotate the high beam bulb
