Using Child Seats With Tethers - Honda 1998 Odyssey Owner's Manual

Protecting Children
If you decide that a child can safely
ride up front, be sure to:
Carefully read the owner's manual,
and make sure you understand all
seat belt instructions and all safety
information.
Move the vehicle seat to the rear-
most position.
Have the child sit up straight with
their back against the seat and
their feet on, or near the floor.
Check that the child's seat belt is
properly positioned and secured.
Closely supervise the child. Even
mature children sometimes need
to be reminded to fasten their seat
belt or sit properly.

Using Child Seats with Tethers

Your Honda has several attachment
points that allow a tether-style child
seat to be installed.
Since a tether can provide additional
security, we recommend using a
tether whenever one is required or
available. (Tethers are required in
Canada. U.S. owners may check with
the child seat maker to determine
whether a tether is available for a
particular child seat.)
U.S. Models
Two tether attachment points are
located on the tailgate sill that allow
a tether-style child seat to be
installed on the third seat. Use the
dimensions in the illustration to
locate the attachment point you want
to use. Cut a 7/8 inch (22 mm)
diameter hole.
