## Abstract

A money depositing and dispensing device includes a storing unit, a conveying unit, a power-supply operation unit, a power-supply control unit, and a display control unit. The storing unit stores money. The conveying unit conveys the money. The power-supply operation unit receives operation concerning a power supply of the money depositing and dispensing device. If the power-supply operation unit receives the operation, on condition that the money conveyed by the conveying unit is absent, the power-supply control unit turns off the conveying unit. On condition that the conveying unit is conveying the money, the display control unit causes a display unit to display an image indicating a reason for not turning off the conveying unit.

## Claims
