Headlight adjustment
The height of the headlight beams can be adjusted according to vehicle load. The headlights should be re-aimed if heavy loads are carried in the trunk/cargo
area or rear seat, or when towing a trailer.
To adjust the headlights:
● Park the car on a level surface and open the hood.
● The headlights are equipped with a level which can be seen by looking through the clear "window" on the top of the headlight lens.
● Turn the height adjustment knob (A) until the bubble in the level aligns with the "0" marks or within the dark marking lines.
