Vertical aim adjustment
On vehicles fitted with HID
headlights, have a Ford
authorized dealer align the
headlights.
1. Park the vehicle on a level
surface approximately 7.6 meters
(25 feet) from a vertical wall or
screen directly in front of it.
2. Measure the height of the
headlamp bulb center from the
ground and mark a 2.5 meters
(8 foot) horizontal reference line on
the vertical wall or screen at this
height. (A piece of masking tape
works well.)
3. Turn on the low beam
headlamps to illuminate the wall or
screen and open the hood.
4. On the wall or screen you will
observe an area of high intensity
light. The top of the high intensity
area should touch the horizontal
reference line. If not, the beam will
need to be adjusted.
5. Locate the vertical adjuster on
each headlamp. Using a 7 mm Allen
head wrench, turn the adjuster
either clockwise (to adjust down)
or counterclockwise (to adjust up).
The high intensity area should
touch the horizontal reference line.
6. HORIZONTAL AIM IS NOT
REQUIRED FOR THIS VEHICLE
AND IS NONĆADJUSTABLE.
7. Close the hood and turn off the
lamps.
