As a result, the start-up time of the vehicle 1 is shortened, and the state in which the air conditioning in the company is maintained by the air conditioner continues. In subsequent step S23, the off-mode setting unit 24 determines whether or not the elapsed time has reached the mode switching time or longer.

Then, the off-mode setting unit 24 advances the process to step S7 when the elapsed time is equal to or longer than the mode switching time, and advances the process to step S24 when the elapsed time does not reach the mode switching time. In step S24, the off-mode setting unit 24 determines whether or not there has been an operation to start the vehicle 1 (such as an ON operation of the power switch 54). Then, when the vehicle 1 is activated, the off-mode setting unit 24 advances the process to step S11. In this case, the activation of the vehicle-mounted device, the login process, and the restarting process of various functions in step S10 are unnecessary, so that the user U who gets into the vehicle 1 can immediately start using the vehicle 1 . On the other hand, when there is no activation operation of the vehicle 1, the off mode setting unit 24 advances the processing to step S22.

In step S7, the off-mode setting unit 24 sets the second off mode. In subsequent step S8, the device operation condition setting unit 26 sets the operation condition of the device mounted on the vehicle 1 to a longer elapsed time until the user U returns to the vehicle 1 (5 minutes or 15 minutes), as described above. operating conditions assuming that the In the second off mode, the MMI device is in a standby state and the air conditioner 125 stops operating, so the standby power consumption of the vehicle 1 is reduced.

In subsequent step S<b>9 , the off-mode setting unit 24 determines whether or not the vehicle 1 has been activated. Then, the off-mode setting unit 24 advances the process to step S10 when the vehicle 1 is activated, and advances the process to step S8 when the vehicle 1 is not activated. In step S<b>10 , the off-mode setting unit 24 instructs the vehicle ECU 141 to start up the in-vehicle device, log in, and restart various functions.
