摘要

Based on the program information for programs to be viewed that have been set by the user in a program-to-view setting section 105, a viewing duration calculating section 106 calculates the total viewing duration for programs to be viewed. A power consumption calculating section 107 calculates the amount of power to be consumed based on the total viewing duration. A battery level detection section 109 detects the battery level. When the battery level is less than the amount of power to be consumed, a recharge notification section 110 notifies the user that the battery needs to be recharged.
