Turning on the headlights of an Accord is quite simple, and I do it often. First, turn the car key to the ON position—you don’t even need to start the engine. There’s a control lever on the left side of the steering wheel; gently push it toward you to turn on the low beams, and if you push it all the way, it activates the high beams. Most Accords now come with an automatic headlight feature—just turn the lever to the AUTO position, and the car will automatically turn the headlights on or off based on ambient light, which is especially convenient during rain or at night. I’ve noticed that new drivers often forget to check their headlight status. It’s best to use a phone flashlight once a month to inspect the headlight covers for fogging or dirt, avoiding blurred vision at night. Headlights aren’t just for illumination—they also alert oncoming vehicles, so safety comes first. I recommend using the automatic mode more often to avoid frequent manual adjustments that can distract you. During routine maintenance, remember to check the bulb lifespan. The factory LED lights in an Accord usually last several years, but if you frequently drive in rural areas, it’s wise to keep a spare bulb just in case. After all, driving starts with the headlights turning on.
