Preliminary Procedures
- Tip:
Horizontal aim is not adjustable on this vehicle. Vertical aiming is accomplished by using the adjuster screw located at the top of the fog lamp from the exterior of the lower outer grille.
- Completely assemble all of the components on the vehicle.
- Place the vehicle on a level surface.
- Stop all work on the vehicle that could affect the ride height of the vehicle.
- Close all doors and verify that the luggage compartment is empty.
- Stabilize the suspension.
- Ensure the fuel level is full.
- Ensure the tires are inflated to proper specification, see the tire placard, inside edge of the driver's door.
- Ensure that the driver or a similar weight, approximately 75kg (165 lbs) is in the driver seat.
- Park the vehicle 7.6 m (25 ft) away from the target screen.
- Measure from the center of the fog lamp to the ground line. Using this measurement, mark the horizontal centerline of the fog lamp line on the target screen directly in front of the vehicle.
- Turn on the fog lamps.
- The top of the fog lamp beam image on the target screen should be 102 mm (4 in) below the center of the fog lamp lens height.
