3, Gasoline

Fuel fee (gasoline fee)
We rent our vehicles with a full tank, so please return the rental car with a full tank.
We regard a "full tank" as one that has been filled with the fuel pump nozzle inserted all the way into the tank, and fuel then pumped to the point where the pump stops automatically.
It is dangerous if the tank is overfilled to the point where it spits out gasoline. Once the pump has stopped, do not attempt to "top off" the tank.
When you return, please bring your gasoline station receipts.
If, due to unavoidable circumstances, you cannot return the vehicle with a full tank, you will be charged a separate fee based on the vehicle's odometer reading.

4, Illegal parking

If you receive a citation for illegal parking during the rental period, please go immediately to the specified police station and pay any required fines. Please submit the payment certificate and receipt that you receive after completing the procedures to the rental shop when you return the vehicle. If we cannot confirm that you have paid the fine when you return the rental car, you will be charged for the illegal parking fine.

Illegal parking fine *For each incidence:	25,000 yen
