Abstract
In a vehicle having a battery and a generator, when a residual charge amount of the battery is reduced to a first predetermined amount, a power-generation command is output to a generator, and the battery is charged by the generator driven by an engine. When the residual charge amount is reduced to a second predetermined amount lower than the first predetermined amount, plural air-conditioning electrical devices are stopped. Thereafter, when the residual charge amount of the battery is increased to be larger than the second predetermined amount, the electrical devices are started at different start times.
