PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problem that user friendliness was low since it was impossible to change a reservation time while comparing it with an originally set reservation time on a reservation screen where a reservation of a heating function or a quick hot water function can be set by utilizing a hot water heater function of a cogeneration device.SOLUTION: A remote control apparatus includes an operation unit 23 for changing reserved contents of operation of equipment, and a display unit 22 on which a plurality of reserved contents set by the operation unit 23 are displayed as icons. The icons on the display unit are set to be changed to at least a first indication 44 which is displayed when the reserved contents to be operated by the equipment are fixed, a second indication 45 which is displayed when the reserved contents not to be operated by the equipment are determined, and is different from the first indication 44, and first and second temporary reservation indications 46 and 54 which are displayed when the operation unit is operated but the reserved contents of operation of the equipment are not determined, and are different from the first indication 44 and the second indication 45.
