Abstract
An air conditioner includes an air conditioner body and a remote controller that controls the operation of the air conditioner body. The air conditioner body includes a body receiver that receives a control signal for controlling the operation from the remote controller, and a body transmitter that transmits operation information for the air conditioner body to the remote controller. The remote controller includes a remote-controller transmitter that transmits the control signal for controlling the operation to the air conditioner body, a remote-controller receiver that receives the operation information transmitted from the air conditioner body, and a power-saving standby unit that sets the remote-controller receiver as a reception standby state when a request signal to request operation information is transmitted from the remote controller to the air conditioner body at each predetermined time interval, and that releases the reception standby state after a given time has passed.
