The communication device is also provided with an evacuation instruction unit that receives an emergency earthquake announcement distributed by the Meteorological Agency from a wide area communication network such as the Internet using the first communication unit and outputs character images or sounds for the instruction of evacuation. Also, it is provided with a communication state determination means for determining whether the communication device is during a speech communication process when receiving the emergency earthquake announcement. When it is determined that it is during the session by the communication state determination means, a volume adjusting means sets the upper limit of the output volume of a sound output unit.
