The waste heat recovering operation mode (a Rankine cycle) is started and operated for a predetermined period of time T1 (s) (S430 to S450). In the case where the difference (P2−P1) between the upstream pressure P1 and the downstream pressure P2 of the liquid pump is higher than the predetermined pressure P, the waste heat recovering operation mode is continued. In the case where the difference (P2−P1) is not more than the predetermined pressure P, after the air conditioning mode is started (S480 to S500), the waste heat recovering operation mode is started again (S430 to S450).
