Aiming headlamps
The alignment of your headlamps
should be checked if:
²Oncoming motorists frequently
signal you to turn off your
vehicle's high beams when you
do not have the high beams on.
²The headlamps do not seem to
give you enough light to see
clearly at night.
²The headlamp beams are
pointed substantially away from
a position slightly down and to
the right.
