1. 1
   Prepare a thick white paper.
2. 2
   Stand the paper perpendicular to the ground at the position 9.84 ft away from the headlights.
3. 3
   Ensure that the center line of the vehicle and the paper face forms a 90-degree angle as shown in the illustration.
4. 4
   Draw a horizontal line (H line) on the paper, showing where the headlights should strike.
5. 5
   Draw a vertical line (V line) to where the center line of the vehicle is to be.
6. 6
   Draw 2 vertical lines (by connecting the low and high beam center marks) to where the both headlights should strike (V RH and V LH lines).
7. 7
   Draw a horizontal line (by connecting the both low beam center marks) to where the headlights should strike (H RH and H LH lines).

HINT: The H RH and H LH line is 0.4 below the horizontal line (H line) of the light axis.

1. 1
   Start the engine.
2. 2
   Turn the headlights ON.
3. 3
   Check that the headlights properly strike the position shown in the illustration.
4. 4
