The audio device (1) includes a control unit (10), a first emission unit (11), and a second emission unit (12). The control unit (10) determines, in accordance with information provided about a particular event, whether or not the particular event is present. The first emission unit (11) emits, when the control unit (10) determines that the particular event be present, a sound to alert a person to the presence of the particular event. The second emission unit (12) emits light in accordance with the information. A time lag (T0) is provided between a first timing (T1) when the sound starts being emitted and a second timing (T2) when the light starts being emitted.
