How to Fold Down and Open the Rear Seats of the Odyssey?
2 Answers
The steps to open and fold down the rear seats of the Odyssey are as follows: There is a lever on each side of the rear seat headrest that can be used to fold the seatback. Then, open the tailgate, and you will find a handle at the lower rear part of the seat. Lift it upward, and there is a strap behind the seatback. Pull it along the direction until the entire rear seat is folded flat. This is how you fold down the rear seats. The Odyssey is a mid-to-large-sized MPV under Honda. The vehicle measures 4845mm in length, 1802mm in width, and 1697mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2900mm. It comes standard with a 2.4L Earth Dreams engine paired with an efficient and smooth CVT transmission, delivering a maximum power of 137kw and a maximum torque of 243nm.
Parents who drive an Odyssey know how incredibly flexible the rear seats are. The second-row independent seats have a pull strap on the side—yank it hard, and the backrest folds forward while the seat cushion automatically lowers. Then, just pull the lever under the seat to slide it forward or backward. To fully flatten the seat cushion, push it all the way forward first, then lift the handle at the front of the cushion and flip it upward. The third row is even simpler: press the headrest to its lowest position, pull the handle at the top of the backrest to lay it flat, and finally tug the large ring under the seat to flip the entire seat into the floor. That’s how I installed my second child’s car seat—got the hang of it after just three tries.
