Your manual shows you how to adjust the beams.

The auto leveling sensor is located on the rear driver side control arm



This diagram should help with the aim a tad bit, I have mine to the lowest setting (all the way down) and my headlight aim is still low - not as bad as before though

Couple of things here for your 2014...

Your LED strips are at 100% in DRL mode and Parking Light mode...

When you switch on the headlights they dim down to 50% by proper design.

Also, if you lowered your car and didn't mess with the rear light sensor bracket too badly, you make proper adjustments of lowering the aim at each headlight..
