Abstract
Charging of an electrical storage device is completed by operation-starting time while increasing a percentage of a charging time of the electrical storage device in a first time period as compared to a percentage of the charging time in a second time period when the first time period and the second time period are included within a period from when a user sets the operation-starting time to the operation-starting time. A temperature adjustment device is operated such that a temperature of the electrical storage device at the operation-starting time falls within a target temperature range while increasing a percentage of an operating time of the temperature adjustment device in the first time period as compared to a percentage of the operating time in the second time period when the first time period and the second time period are included within the period from when the user sets the operation-starting time to the operation-starting time. The operation-starting time is scheduled time at which a start-up of a vehicle is initiated.
