A sensor detects contact of a finger of a user who grips a casing.

A notification unit notifies the user of at least one of an indication indicating that the contact position of the finger is shifted from a reference position and an indication indicating that the contact position of the finger matches the reference position when the sensor information matches the reference position information. A tactile stimulus generation unitprovides a tactile stimulus for the user gripping the casing.
