Open the hood.
If you need to change the head-
light bulb on the driver’s side,
remove the power steering
reservoir tank by pulling it out of
its holder.

Your car has halogen headlight
bulbs, one on each side. When
replacing a bulb, handle it by its steel
base and protect the glass from
contact with your skin or hard
objects. If you touch the glass, clean
it with denatured alcohol and a clean
cloth.

The headlights were properly aimed
when your car was new. If you
regularly carry heavy items in the
trunk, readjustment may be required.
Adjustment of the headlights should
be performed by a Honda technician
or other qualified mechanic.

Halogen headlight bulbs get very hot

when lit. Oil, perspiration, or a scratch

on the glass can cause the bulb to

overheat and shatter.
