Headlamp
Aiming
Your vehicle has the composite headlamp system. These
headlamps have horizontal and vertical aim indicators.
The
aim
has been pre-set at the hctory and should need
no
further adjustment.
If
your vehicle is damaged in
an
accident and the
headlamp aim seems to be affected, see your Aurora
retailer. Headlamps
on
damaged vehicles may require
recalibration
of
the horizontal aim by your Aurora
retailer.
To
check the aim, the vehicle should be properly
prepared as follows:
The vehicle must have all four tires on a perfectly
level surface.
The vehicle should not have any snow, ice, or mud
attached
to
it.
