A forklift includes a fuel cell system. The fuel cell system includes a battery stack and a capacitor and is electrically connected to a vehicle system. The vehicle system includes a control valve that switches supply of hydraulic oil to a power steering cylinder and a cargo-handling cylinder, a cargo-handling pump that supplies hydraulic oil stored in a hydraulic oil tank to the control valve, a cargo-handling motor that drives the cargo-handling pump, and an on-load valve that returns the hydraulic oil from the control valve to the hydraulic oil tank. The fuel cell system operates the fuel cell system to execute a warm-up control. A vehicle ECU continues supplying power from the fuel cell stack to the cargo-handling motor during the execution of the warm-up control.
