Abstract
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a display device for a vehicle which is capable of avoiding NAND flash memory data loss. Provided is a display device for a vehicle, comprising: a display unitwhich displays vehicle information; a NAND flash memorywhich stores, together with an error correction code, data which is related to the display of the display unit; and a control unit (for example, a second control unit) which causes the displayto display the vehicle information using said data. When a load upon the vehicle is low, such as when a switch key for commencing the driving of the vehicle is off, the control unit (for example, a first control unit), as a data loss avoidance process, assesses, with the error correction code, whether an error is present in the data which is recorded in the NAND flash memory. If the error is present in the data, the control unit (for example, the first control unit) corrects the error with the error correction code.
