How to Adjust Your Headlights
Before taking your vehicle out on the road, make sure to first properly adjust your headlights. Park your vehicle on a level surface about 10 to 25 feet from a wall and turn on the headlights. The brightest part of the beams should not be any higher than 3.5 feet above the ground. Follow the steps below to make adjustments:
1. Find the adjustment screws. First, locate the adjustment screws on your vehicle.
2. Adjust the headlights individually. The headlights should be adjusted one at a time. Put a towel over a chair in front of the light you want to block. Covering the light directly can damage the plastic lens.
3. Adjust the vertical field. The screw on top of the light housing should be turned clockwise to raise the light and counterclockwise to lower the light. The headlight should be adjusted until the top of the most intense part of the beam shines directly on or just below the center of the tape line on the wall.
4. Test the result.
