Your vehicle's headlights were properly aimed at the factory. However, if you frequently carry heavy loads in the cargo area or tow a trailer, additional headlight aiming adjustment may be required. Have this procedure performed by a Honda dealer.

You can adjust the vertical aim of the low beam headlights. For more information, see page 146.

(For some vehicle variants)

For vehicles with High-Intensity Discharge (HID) low beam headlights, your vehicle is equipped with an automatic vertical headlight aiming control for the low beams. For more information, see page 146.
