AIMING THE HEADLAMPS
Your vehicle is equipped with a Vehicle Headlamp Aim Device (VHAD)
on each headlamp body. Each headlamp may be properly aimed in the
horizontal direction (left/right) and the vertical position (up/down).
A non-zero bubble reading 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 level indicator. Therefore, vertical headlamp
adjustment should be performed only when beam direction appears to be
incorrect.
The horizontal aim must be adjusted first. 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, remove the
protective cover, then locate the
horizontal indicator and the
adjusting screw.
3.Usea4mmwrench or socket to
turn the horizontal adjusting screw
until the end of the shaft within the
clear tube lines up with the ª0º
reference mark on the indicator
when viewed directly from above.

PERIMETER ALARM SYSTEM
The perimeter anti-theft system will help protect your vehicle doors,
hood and trunk from unauthorized entry.
When the vehicle is armed the power door locks and remote trunk
release control are disabled. These will not work until the vehicle is
disarmed.
If there is any potential perimeter anti-theft problem with your vehicle,
ensureALL key fobs(remote entry transmitters) are brought to the
dealership, to aid in troubleshooting.
Arming the system
When armed, the perimeter alarm will help protect your vehicle from
unauthorized entry. When unauthorized entry occurs, the system will
flash the turn signal lamps and the theft indicator lamp and will sound
the horn.
The system is ready to arm whenever the key is out of the ignition. Any
of the following actions will arm the alarm system:
²Press the remote transmitter lock control.
²Open a door and press the power door lock control.
²Lock all doors with the key.
The system will wait 20 seconds after one of the arming actions is
performed before allowing an alarm to go off.
Theft indicator
When the perimeter alarm is armed, the theft indicator on the
instrument panel will flash briefly every two seconds to indicate the
perimeter alarm system is protecting your vehicle.

²Unlock the doors by using your remote entry transmitter.
²Unlock the driver's door by using your key.
