Fastening A Seat Belt; Adjusting The Shoulder Anchor; Seat Belt With Detachable Anchor - Honda ODYSSEY 2020 Owner's Manual

SAFETY INFORMATION
A belt that has been worn during a crash may not provide the same level of
protection in a subsequent crash. Have your seat belts inspected by a
dealer after any collision.
Not checking or maintaining seat belts can result in serious injury or death
if the seat belts do not work properly when needed.
Check your seat belts regularly and have any problem corrected as soon
as possible.

Fastening a Seat Belt

n
Adjust your seat to the proper position and then follow the steps below:
1. Pull the seat belt out slowly.
2. Insert the latch plate into the
buckle, then tug on the belt to make
sure the buckle is secure. Make
sure that the belt is not twisted or
caught on anything.
3. Position the lap part of the belt as
low as possible across your hips,
then pull up on the shoulder part of
the belt so the lap part fits snugly.
This lets your strong pelvic bones
take the force of a crash and
reduces the chance of internal
injuries.

4. If necessary, pull up on the belt again to remove any slack, then make
sure that the belt rests across the center of your chest and over your
shoulder. This spreads the forces of a crash over the strongest bones in
your upper body.
To release the belt, push the red PRESS button then guide the belt by hand
until it has retracted completely. When exiting the vehicle, be sure the belt
is properly stowed so that it will not get caught in the closing door.
Improperly positioning the seat belt can cause serious injury or death in a
crash.
Make sure all seat belts are properly positioned before driving.

Adjusting the Shoulder Anchor

n
The front seats have adjustable shoulder anchors to accommodate taller
and shorter occupants.
1. Move the anchor up and down
while pulling the release outward.
2. Position the anchor so that the belt
rests across the center of your
chest and over your shoulder.

Seat Belt with Detachable Anchor

n
1. Pull out the seat belt's small latch
plate and the latch plate from each
holding slot in the ceiling.
