Default '02-'04 ES300/ES330 Headlight Adjustment

I have an '03 ES300 with auto-leveling xenon headlights and was wondering if anyone knew how to adjust the level on them. They seem to be pointed too low and only light up about 10-20ft in front of the car (this is not much when traveling on the freeway). I'd like to aim them upward but could not locate any adjusting screws or anything on the backs of the lights. From what I've read some other Lexus vehicles have the leveling sensors attached to the suspension but I didn't notice anything on my car after a quick inspection with a flashlight. Any ideas?

For the 2002 ES it is on page 332 and 333 of the owners manual. Not sure if they are the same page numbers in the 2003 or 2004 ES manual. The veritical aim adjustment bolts (2 of them) are under the hood.

Thanks steviej, for some reason I never thought to look in the owner's manual for this. It looks like there are a couple of phillips screwdriver slots that can be turned to adjust the vertical aim. I'll give it a shot one of these nights to see how it works out.
