CONTACTLESS CHARGER, PROGRAM THEREFOR, AND AUTOMOBILE EQUIPPED WITH SAME

A position detection coil (14B) is disposed as a foreign matter detector that detects a state where a foreign matter is present on the upper surface of an installation plate (6). Further, the position detection coil (14B) and an alarm unit (43) that emits an alarm when detecting a foreign matter by the position detection coil (14B) are connected to a controller (10). The controller (10) is formedd to alternately drive position detectors (both position detection coils (14A), (14B)) and the position detection coil (14B) alone (foreign matter detector), and drive the alarm unit (43) if the detection level that is detected by the position detection coil (14B) alone (foreign matter detector) is higher than a threshold.
