VEHICLE PREPARATION FOR HEADLIGHT AIM ADJUSTMENT
Prepare the vehicle:
Ensure that there is no damage or deformation to the body around the headlights.
Fill the fuel tank.
Make sure that the oil is filled to the specified level.
Make sure that the coolant is filled to the specified level.
Inflate the tires to the appropriate pressure.
Place the spare tire, tools, and jack in their original positions.
Unload the trunk.
Sit a person of average weight (75 kg, 165 lb) in the driver's seat.
PREPARATION FOR HEADLIGHT AIMING (USING A SCREEN)
Prepare the vehicle according to the following conditions:
Place the vehicle in a location that is dark enough to clearly observe the cutoff line. The cutoff line is a distinct line, below which light from the headlights can be observed and above which it cannot.
Place the vehicle at a 90° angle to the wall.
Create a 25 m (82 ft) distance between the vehicle (headlight bulb center) and the wall.
Place the vehicle on a level surface.
Bounce the vehicle up and down to settle the suspension.
Note
A distance of 25 m (82 ft) between the vehicle (headlight bulb center) and the wall is necessary for proper aim adjustment. If unavailable, secure a distance of exactly 3 m (9.84 ft) for check and adjustment. (The target zone will change with the distance so follow the instructions in the illustration.)
Prepare a piece of thick white paper (approximately 2 m (6.6 ft) (height) x 4 m (13.1 ft) (width)) to use as a screen.
Draw a vertical line down the center of the screen (V line).
Set the screen as shown in the illustration.
Tech Tips
Stand the screen perpendicular to the ground.
Align the V line on the screen with the center of the vehicle.
Draw base lines (H line, V LH, V RH lines) on the screen as shown in the illustration.
Tech Tips
The base lines differ for "low-beam inspection" and "high-beam inspection".
Make the headlight bulb center marks on the screen. If the center mark cannot be observed on the headlight, use the center of the headlight bulb or the manufacturer's name marked on the headlight as the center mark.
H Line (Headlight height):
Draw a horizontal line across the screen so that it passes through the center marks. The H line should be at the same height as the headlight bulb center marks of the low-beam headlights.
V LH Line, V RH Line (Center mark position of left-hand (LH) and right-hand (RH) headlights):
Draw two vertical lines so that they intersect the H line at each center mark (aligned with the center of the low-beam headlight bulbs).
HEADLIGHT AIMING INSPECTION
Cover or disconnect the connector of the headlight on the opposite side to prevent light from the headlight not being inspected from affecting headlight aiming inspection.
Note
Do not keep the headlight covered for more than 3 minutes. The headlight lens is made of synthetic resin, and may easily melt or be damaged due to heat.
Tech Tips
When checking the aim of the high-beam, cover the low-beam or disconnect the connector.
Start the engine.
Note
Engine rpm must be 1,500 or more.
With headlight leveling switch:
Set the headlight leveling switch to 0 (zero).
Turn on the headlight and make sure that the cutoff line falls within the specified area, as shown in the illustration.
Tech Tips
Alignment distance is 25 m (82 ft):
The cutoff line is 48 mm (1.88 in.) to 698 mm (27.48 in.) below the H line on low-beams (ECE Reg.48).
Alignment distance is 3 m (9.84 ft):
The cutoff line is 6 mm (0.23 in.) to 84 mm (3.3 in.) below the H line on low-beams (ECE Reg.48).
Alignment distance is 25 m (82 ft):
The cutoff line is 249 mm (9.8 in.) below the H line on low-beams.
Alignment distance is 3 m (9.84 ft):
The cutoff line is 30 mm (1.18 in.) below the H line on low-beams.
Since the low-beam light and the high-beam light are a unit, if the aim on one is correct, the other should also be correct. However, check both beams just to make sure.
ADJUST HEADLIGHT AIMING
Adjust the aim vertically:
Adjust the headlight aim into the specified range by turning aiming screw A with a screwdriver.
Note
The final turn of the aiming screw should be made in the clockwise direction. If the screw is tightened excessively, loosen it and then retighten it, so that the final turn of the screw is in the clockwise direction.
Tech Tips
Perform low-beam aim adjustment.
The headlight aim moves up when turning the aiming screw clockwise, and moves down when turning the aiming screw counterclockwise.
Adjust the aim horizontally:
Adjust the headlight aim into the specified range by turning aiming screw B with a screwdriver.
Note
The final turn of the aiming screw should be made in the clockwise direction. If the screw is tightened excessively, loosen it and then retighten it, so that the final turn of the screw is in the clockwise direction.
Tech Tips
Perform low-beam aim adjustment.
INSPECT BRAKE PEDAL HEIGHT
Check brake pedal height.
| Pedal height from floor |
|---|
| 151 to 161 mm (5.945 to 6.339 in.) for left hand drive |
| 154 to 164 mm (6.063 to 6.457 in.) for right hand drive |
ADJUST BRAKE PEDAL HEIGHT
Disconnect the stop light switch connector.
Turn the stop light switch assembly counter-clockwise and remove it.
Remove the brake booster Click here.
Loosen the push rod lock nut.
Adjust the pedal height by turning the pedal push rod clevis.
Tighten the push rod lock nut.
Install the brake booster Click here.
Insert the stop light switch into the adjuster until it slightly touches the cushion.
CAUTION:
Do not depress the brake pedal.
Turn the stop light switch assembly clockwise by approximately 90°.
CAUTION:
Do not depress the brake pedal.
Connect the stop light switch connector.
Check the clearance of the shaft.
| Clearance |
|---|
| 0.5 to 2.6 mm (0.020 to 0.102 in.) |
INSPECT BRAKE PEDAL FREE PLAY
Stop the engine and depress the brake pedal several times until there is no more vacuum left in the booster.
Push in the pedal until the beginning of the resistance is felt. Measure the distance as shown in the illustration.
| Pedal free play |
|---|
| 1.0 to 6.0 mm (0.039 to 0.236 in.) |
INSPECT BRAKE PEDAL RESERVE DISTANCE
Stop the engine and depress the brake pedal several times until there is no more vacuum left in the booster.
Release the parking brake handle.
With the engine running, depress the pedal and measure the pedal reserve distance as shown in the illustration.
| Pedal reserve distance from floor |
|---|
| More than 117 mm (4.61 in.) at 500 N (51 kgf, 112.5 lbf) for left hand drive |
| More than 120 mm (4.72 in.) at 500 N (51 kgf, 112.5 lbf) for right hand drive |
Note
Remove the floor mat before measuring the distance.
