Honda CR-V 2017-2026 Owner's Manual / Safe Driving / Child Safety / Safety of Infants and Small Children / Adding Security with a Tether

A tether anchorage point is provided behind each rear seating position.

If you have a child seat that comes with a tether but can be installed with a seat belt, the tether may be used for additional security.

Honda CR-V. Adding Security with a Tether

Since a tether can provide additional security to the lap/shoulder seat belt installation, we recommend using a tether whenever one is available.

Using an outer anchor

  1. Put the head restraint to its upper-most position, then route the tether strap through the head restraint legs.

    Make sure the strap is not twisted.

  2. Secure the tether strap hook to the anchor.
  3. Tighten the tether strap as instructed by the child seat manufacturer.
