PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent the actuation of a timer circuit, when intermittent operation is unnecessary, for example, during charging. SOLUTION: The controller is provided with a timer circuit, that outputs a signal for switching to wakeup state a specified time after a sleep state signal is supplied from a microcomputer, an OR circuit that logically adds a timer expiration signal from the timer circuit, an on-state signal from an ignition switch, and a signal indicating that charging operation is in progress, and a switch circuit. The switch circuit inhibits supply of a signal instructing the actuation of the timer to the timer circuit, when the microcomputer is being supplied from the OR circuit having a signal indicating that a charging operation is in progress and moreover when charging operation is not being conducted. |
