ABSTRACT:
A remote control device in a vehicle is provided in proximity of a driver's seat such that an operation unit of the remote control device is manually rotated and pressed by a hand of a driver in a driver's seat. A case of the remote control device contains vibrators to vibrate left and right sides of the remote control device. A navigation device is connected to a control unit of the remote control device. When a position of the vehicle approaches a specified guidance point during route guidance, the navigation device outputs a guidance signal (left-turn or right-turn instruction) to the control unit. When supplied with the guidance signal, the control unit controls driving of the vibrators to vibrate the remote control device based on the guidance signal.
