Abstract
During charging of a mobile device by a charging coil, a charge controller acquires information of the seating position of the owner of the mobile device, through a short-range wireless communicating section, and therefore issues an alarm when a person who causes the mobile device to be charged performs an operation of leaving from the seating position. Consequently, it is possible to prevent the mobile device from being left in a vehicle.
