1. An electronic device that includes a part prone to aged deterioration, comprising:
- an environmental load applying unit that applies a higher environmental load on the part than an environmental load in a normal operation;
an error detecting unit that detects an error in the part with the higher environmental load applied; and
a failure predicting unit that predicts a failure of the part based on the error detected.
