The vehicle should be properly prepared as follows:
To adjust the vertical aim, do the following:
•
The vehicle should be placed so the headlamps
are 25 ft. (7.6 m) from a light colored wall or
other flat surface.
1.
Open the hood. See Hood Release on page 5-11
for more information.
•
The vehicle must have all four tires on a level
surface which is level all the way to the wall or other
flat surface.
•
•
•
The vehicle should be placed so it is perpendicular
to the wall or other flat surface.
The vehicle should not have any snow, ice,
or mud on it.
The vehicle should be fully assembled and all other
work stopped while headlamp aiming is being
performed.
•
The vehicle should be normally loaded with a full
tank of fuel and one person or 160 lbs (75 kg)
sitting on the driver’s seat.
2.
Find the aim dot on the lens of the low-beam
headlamp.
•
•
Tires should be properly inflated.
3. Measure the distance from the ground to the
aim dot on the low-beam headlamp. Record
the distance.
The spare tire is in its original location in the vehicle.
Headlamp aiming is done with the vehicle’s low-beam
headlamps. The high-beam headlamps will be correctly
aimed if the low-beam headlamps are aimed properly.
4.
At the wall or other flat surface, measure from the
ground upward the recorded distance from Step 2
and mark it.
