Upon detection to connection to a cradle, a control section of a mobile communication terminal accesses a storage section to determine whether setting information indicating operation settings of various functions is stored therein. When setting information is stored therein, the control section turns on power of the mobile communication terminal and controls the respective sections to execute an operation according to the setting information. While, no setting information is stored therein, the control section performs a charging operation without turning on power of the mobile communication terminal. Then, upon detection of release of connection to the cradle, the executed operation is finished based on the setting information.
