Headlamps

The headlamps are controlled by the headlamp switch. The headlamp switch is located in the headlamp and instrument panel lamp dimmer switch to the left of the steering column. The headlamps will come on with the ignition switch in any position. The headlamps are turned on by rotating the headlamp switch completely to the right. The headlamps are turned off by turning the headlamp switch completely to the left.

The following headlamps beams are controlled by the multi-function lever (turn signal lever) that is located on the left side of the steering column:
^ The headlamp low-beam
^ The headlamp high-beam

Once the headlamps are on, the headlamp beam can be changed as described below:
^ From high-beam to low-beam
^ From low-beam to high-beam

Change the headlamp beam by pulling the lever toward the driver seat until the switch clicks. An indicator lamp on the instrument cluster will come on when the high-beam headlamps are on.

IMPORTANT: Some state and local laws specify requirements for headlamp aim. You must follow these laws.

Aim the headlamps for proper illumination of the road. Inspect the headlamp aim when one of the following situations occurs:
^ Anew headlamp is installed.
^ Service repairs are made to the front end area that may have disturbed the headlamp or the headlamp mounting.
