PRECAUTION

  1. Before disassembling or reassembling parts, always disconnect the battery ground cable. When replacing radio, control module and other parts provided with memory functions, record memory contents before disconnecting the battery ground cable. Otherwise, the memory will be erased.
  2. Reassemble in reverse order of disassembly, unless otherwise indicated.
  3. Adjust parts to the given specifications.
  4. Connect the connectors and hoses securely during reassembly.
  5. After reassembly, make sure functional parts operate smoothly.
WARNINGAirbag system wiring harness is routed near electrical parts and switches. All airbag system wiring harnesses and connectors are yellow. Do not use electric test equipment on these circuits. Be careful not to damage the airbag system wiring harness when servicing electrical parts and switches.

Headlight Aiming

IMPORTANTTurn off the light before adjusting headlight aiming. If the light is necessary to check aiming, do not turn on for more than 2 minutes.

Before checking the headlight aiming, be sure of the following

  1. The area around the headlight has not sustained any accident, damage or other type of deformation.
  2. Vehicle is parked on level ground.
  3. The inflation pressure of tires is correct.
  4. Vehicle's gas tank is fully charged.
  5. Bounce the vehicle several times to normalize the suspension.
  6. Make certain that someone is seated in the driver's seat.

Turn the headlights on and then adjust the low beam pattern to the following positions on the screen.

Position the headlight beam leveler switch to "0".

Using a Phillips head screwdriver (A), rotate the adjusting screw (B) to adjust aim.

High Beam & Halogen Type Low Beam

IMPORTANTBecause the tungsten halogen bulb operates at a high temperature, dirt and oil on the bulb surface reduces the bulb 's service life. Hold the flange portion when replacing the bulb. Never touch the glass portion. Do not leave the headlight without a bulb for a long time. Dust, moisture, etc. entering the headlight may affect its performance.

Disconnect the ground cable from battery.

Remove the air intake duct (when right side headlight bulb is removed).

Disconnect the harness connector.

Remove the bulb ASSY (A): high beam. To remove the low beam, remove the back cover (B), and then go to Step 5.

HID Type Low Beam

IMPORTANTDo not operate with wet hands. As the lightening circuit uses high voltage, be sure to confirm that the power supply is turned off before operation. When replacing the bulb, hold the flange portion and never touch the glass portion. Do not leave the headlight without a bulb for a long time. Dust, and moisture, etc. entering the headlight may affect its performance.

Halogen Type

Visually check the bulb for blow out.

Check the bulb specification.

If NG, replace the bulb with a new one.

HID Type

IMPORTANTDo not operate with wet hands. Do not touch the harness, inner headlight, or any metallic portion of the headlight when the light is illuminated (when the lighting switch is turned on). When performing a lighting test, make sure that the headlight is mounted on the vehicle, and the power supply is connected to the connector on the vehicle's side.

Check the bulb specification.

Use a normal HID bulb for headlight lighting test.

If the headlight does not illuminate, replace the bulb with a new one.

IMPORTANTHID type light bulb contains mercury. Dispose the bulb according to regional regulation and contact Service Center.
