Abstract

A charging system includes a movable unit, a elevating unit, an interface (key portion), and a controller. The movable unit includes a charging connector connectable to a vehicle. The elevating unit lifts up/down the movable unit between a state in which the movable unit is accommodated under the ground and a state in which the movable unit is exposed on the ground and the charging connector1 and the vehicle are connectable to each other. Via the interface, information is input and output between a user and the charging system. The controller controls the elevating unit to lift up/down the movable unit when a condition for receiving a lifting operation via the interface is satisfied and the lifting operation is received.
