Facilities and services for safe highway driving

Automated external defibrillators (AEDs) are available at all rest areas.

An automated external defibrillator is a medical device used to apply an electric shock to the heart in the case of a heart failure to return it to a normal operating state.

At filling stations on the highways, attendants check the type of fuel before refilling to ensure safe driving.

Please provide your automobile inspection certificate so the attendant can check the type of fuel required.

• Note: Use of the wrong type of fuel may result in an engine failure on the highway and may cause a serious accident.

If you realize you forgot your gas cap…

Call the telephone number of the filling station you were at. It can be found on the receipt.
If you cannot find the phone number, contact the nearest rest area concierge station or the NEXCO Central Japan Customer Center at 0120-922-229 (052-223-0333 from a PHS or IP phone).
Running out of gas on a highway may result in an unexpected accident.

If there is a large-scale disaster, please note that emergency vehicles have priority for refueling, which may be restricted for general-use vehicles.

EV Quick Charging Points for charging electric vehicles

Highway drivers with a recharge card can use their card at any of some 300 EV Quick Charging Points located at rest areas on the NEXCO East, Central and West highway systems. Even if you do not have a recharge card, credit cards are accepted.

EV Quick Charging Points may be down due to malfunction or maintenance. Check below in advance for recharging station down times.

If the EV Quick Charging Points are out of service, regular 200-volt recharging is also available. To use a regular recharging station, contact the call center telephone number listed on the recharger. The recharger will be unlocked after a short delay. The recharging plug provided in the vehicle is required for regular charging. Make sure you keep it with the vehicle.

Note: The maximum time per recharge is 30 minutes. (Use for 15 to 30 minutes should provide a recharge of up to 80 percent.)
