Honda CR-V: Safety of Infants and Small Children / Installing a LATCH-Compatible Child Seat

Honda CR-V 2017-2025 Owner's Manual / Safe Driving / Child Safety / Safety of Infants and Small Children / Installing a LATCH-Compatible Child Seat

A LATCH-compatible child seat can be installed in any rear seats. A child seat is attached to the lower anchors with either the rigid or flexible type of connectors.

Locate the lower anchors under the marks.
Place the child seat on the vehicle seat, then attach the child seat to the lower anchors according to the instructions that came with the child seat.
- When installing the child seat, make sure that the lower anchors are not obstructed by the seat belt or any other object.
Outer position. Put the head restraint to its upper-most position, then route the tether strap between the head restraint legs, and secure the tether strap hook to the anchor.
Go to step 9.
Center position. Put the head restraint to its upper-most position.

WARNING

Never attach two child seats to the same anchor. In a collision, one anchor may not be strong enough to hold two child seat attachments and may break, causing serious injury or death.

For your child’s safety, when using a child seat installed using the LATCH system, make sure that the child seat is properly secured to the vehicle. A child seat that is not properly secured will not adequately protect a child in a crash and may cause injury to the child or other vehicle occupants.
Open the anchor cover.
Route the tether strap through the head restraint legs. Make sure the strap is not twisted.
Secure the tether strap hook to the anchor.
All models. Tighten the tether strap as instructed by the child seat manufacturer.
Make sure the child seat is firmly secured by rocking it forward and back and side to side; little movement should be felt.
Make sure any unused seat belt that a child can reach is buckled, the lockable retractor is activated, and the belt is fully retracted and locked.
