Using Child Restraints With Tethers - Honda 1997 Odyssey Owner's Manual

Child Safety
Using Child Restraints with
Tethers
Your Honda has several attachment
points that allow a tether-style child
seat to be installed.
Tethers do not replace the use of seat
belts. Even if a tether is used, a child
seat must always be secured
properly with the vehicle's seat belts.
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.
Driver and Passenger Safety
Install the tether hardware that came
with the child seat.
Tighten the bolt to:
16 lbf.ft (2.2 kgf.m, 22 N.m)
If you are not sure how to install the
hardware, have it installed by your
authorized Honda dealer.
If you need an anchor plate and
mounting hardware, contact your
Honda dealer.
