- Ensure there is no damage or deformation to the body around the fog
lamps.
- Fill the fuel tank.
- Make sure that the oil is filled to the specified level.

- 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 fog lamps
can be observed and above which it cannot.

NOTICE:
A distance of 7.62 m (25 ft) between the vehicle (fog lamp
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 screen (V line).
- d. set the screen as shown in the illustration.
HINT:
- Stand the screen perpendicular to the ground.
- Align the V line on the screen with the center of the vehicle.
e. Draw base lines (H line, V LH, V RH lines) on the screen
as shown in the illustration.
HINT:
Mark the fog lamp bulb center marks on the screen. If the center
mark cannot be observed on the fog lamp, use the center of the
fog lamp bulb or the manufacturer’s name marked on the fog
lamp as the center mark.
- H Line (Fog lamp 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 fog lamp bulb center
marks of the low−beam fog lamps.
- V LH Line, V RH Line (Center mark position of left−
hand (LH) and right−hand (RH) fog lamps):
Draw two vertical lines so that they intersect the H
line at each center mark.
3. FOG LAMP AIMING INSPECTION
- Cover or disconnect the connector of the fog lamp on the opposite side
to prevent light from the fog
lamp not being inspected from affecting fog lamp aiming inspection.
- Start the engine.

Engine rpm must be 1,500 or more.
c. Turn on the fog lamp and make sure that the cutoff line falls within the
specified area, as shown in the
illustration.
