How to turn on the high beam on a Honda?
2 Answers
Pull the left-hand control lever toward the driver to turn on the high beam. Release the lever to automatically reset it and turn off the high beam. The method is to push the control lever away from the driver.
Operating the high beams on a Honda is quite straightforward: First, ensure the vehicle's lighting system is turned on by rotating the light switch below the steering wheel to the "on" position or "auto" mode (if equipped with automatic headlights). Once the low beams are activated, you can use the long turn signal stalk on the left. For most Honda models like the Civic or CR-V, simply pushing or pulling the stalk once switches to high beams—a quick push often activates the flash-to-pass feature for temporary road illumination, while pulling and holding or a firm push engages constant high beams for broader visibility. Remember to avoid using high beams when facing oncoming traffic or in urban areas, as this can dazzle others and is both illegal and hazardous. Having driven many Hondas, I find their design intuitive—new drivers will get the hang of it with a few practices. If the lights suddenly fail, it might indicate a bulb or fuse issue; consult the manual or visit a service center. Safety comes first—proper high beam usage ensures more secure nighttime driving!
