Mobile terminal
First Claim
1. A mobile terminal comprising:
- a battery configured to supply a power voltage to the mobile terminal;
a receiver unit configured to receive a television signal including video and voice signals;
an output unit configured to output the video and voice signals;
a setting unit configured to set an operating mode for automatically starting up the receiver unit and the output unit at a desired date and time;
a determining unit configured to detect an output voltage of the battery at the desired date and time, and determine whether the detected voltage is higher than a predetermined threshold, or is lower than the threshold; and
a control unit configured to restrict operations of the receiver unit and the output unit, if it is determined that the output voltage of the battery is lower than the threshold.

Abstract
In a mobile terminal having an automatic startup mode of a television signal receiving function using a timer, startup is properly controlled in consideration of remaining battery capacity to thereby prevent an occurrence of unexpected lack of battery capacity. In a state where an alarm mode using a television broadcast or an FM broadcast has been set, a control unit makes low voltage determination of a battery at a time point when a time has been up. When an output voltage value of the battery is lower than a threshold, the control unit outputs an alarm sound from a speaker instead of starting up a TV receiver and causes a display to display a low voltage message.
