Adjusting headlamp aim

Correct headlamp adjustment is extremely important.

To check and readjust a headlamp, follow steps 1

through 7. Please note:

• Adjustments to low beam simultaneously aim the

high beam.

• Vehicle should have a normal trunk load.

• Vertical aim adjustments change horizontal aim.

1. Park vehicle on level surface approximately 25 ft.

(7.6 m) from a vertical test screen or wall. The

centerline of the vehicle must be at a 90° angle to

the test screen.

2. (Low beams on):

Using a carpenter‘s level, align and mark a vertical

centerline (8) on the test screen using the vertex of

the angle formed in each beam image. As a check,

the distance between centerlines should be 49

inches (1260 mm). If the distance does not check,

have the system verified by an authorized

Mercedes-Benz Center.

3. Open hood.

4. Vertical headlamp aim (Low beams on):

Turn adjusting screw (2) (counterclockwise to adjust

headlamp downward, clockwise upward) until

bubble in the level (6) is centered on the “0” mark.

Graduations: 0.18° pitch.
