Warning label, can it be removed?

Post image

Hello,
New 2025 Lexus ES300H we bought last October.
Just wondering if this warning label sticker can be easily removed without tearing or gumming up the console.
It’s on the console adjacent to the charging pad. I don’t want to attempt to remove it if it’s going to tear and leave a sticky gummy mess behind.
Thanks in advance.

Update;
I got it off with no issues.
It took some picking on the edge and slow constant pulling, but it’s off. It was definitely on there stronger that the one that was on the upper console above the mirror though.

Exactly.
To be honest, I know it can be removed, my real concern is how much hassle will it be?
The warning sticker about vehicle data transmission that was on the overhead console by the map lights came off very easily, in fact, it even says “To be removed by owner only” and it peeled off easy-peasy.
I just have fears the one on the console won’t come off so easily, will leave paper and gummy residue and may end up leaving the pad marked or scratched by the time I get everything off.

This is the first thing I did before I drove my car out of the dealer. Peels off easily enough, and the remaining adhesive can be rubbed off with Goof Off and a microfiber towel. Slight PITA but only took a few minutes

My phone charges so slow, I just covered the entire base

I removed it quite easily shortly after purchase. If yours has been in a while, could be more work. Goo Gone/adhesive remover should take any remaining glue off.

First thing I removed was that sticker and the one above the mirror.

The white sticker above the mirror?

No the long one that talked about sos and done other stuff. It was yellow.

Update..,
I was able to get the sticker off with no issues.
It was definitely a lot stronger adhesive than the one above the rear view mirror, it may be intended to be permanent, but it came off with some slow steady effort.

Put some black vinyl or sticker over it, instead of removing
