USING THE RIGHT BULBS
Replacement bulbs are specified in the chart below. Headlamp bulbs
must be marked with an authorized ªD.O.T.º for North America and an
ªEº for Europe to assure lamp performance, light brightness and pattern
and safe visibility. The correct bulbs will not damage the lamp assembly
or void the lamp assembly warranty and will provide quality bulb burn
time.

AIMING THE HEADLAMPS
Your vehicle is equipped with a
Vehicle Headlamp Aim Device
(VHAD) on each headlamp. Each
headlamp may be properly aimed in
the vertical (up/down) and the
horizontal (left/right) directions
using your VHAD system. The
headlamps on your vehicle are
properly aimed at the assembly
plant.
A bubble (vertical indicator) that is
not centered between the two red
lines does not necessarily indicate
out-of-aim headlamps. If your
vehicle is not positioned on a level surface, the slope will be included in
the vertical indication. Therefore, vertical and horizontal headlamp
adjustment should be performed only when the beam direction appears
to be incorrect.
You will need one 4 mm wrench or socket to make the adjustments.
If the vehicle has been in an accident, the vehicle's front structure
should be properly aligned before aiming the headlamps.
Horizontal aim adjustment
1. Park the vehicle on a level
surface.
2. With the hood open, locate the
horizontal indicator and the
adjusting screw. They are located
below the viewing hole at the rear
of the headlamp assembly.
3.Usea4mmwrench or socket to
turn the horizontal adjusting screw
until the ª0º mark on the yellow dial
lines up with the reference mark on the marker (as shown) when viewed
directly from above.

Turning the horizontal adjusting
screw in the direction of the arrow
changes the horizontal aim as
shown.
Vertical aim adjustment
1. Park the vehicle on a level
surface.
2. With the hood open, locate the
bubble level and the vertical
adjustment screw. The adjustment
screw is located on the outboard
side of the headlamp.
3. The ªUº and ªDº on the bubble
indicate the directional change (up
or down) of the vertical aim.
4.Usea4mmwrench or socket to
turn the vertical adjusting screw
until the bubble is centered between
the two red lines which represents
the ª0º mark position.
When the horizontal and vertical indicators are set to the ª0º mark, the
headlamp has been properly aimed.
