OUTLINE
The G-BOOK system is a telematics service that links the vehicle and G-BOOK network (provides information from the G-BOOK center or content providers).
To use the G-BOOK system, it is necessary to connect the telematics transceiver (Data Communication Module (DCM)) to the multi-media module receiver assembly.
The user needs to follow the instructions on the multi-media module receiver assembly to start using the G-BOOK system service after applying for the service at a dealership.
When the vehicle reaches an altitude greater than 5000 m, the device stops operating in order to protect the Hard Disc Drive (HDD). During this time, the G-BOOK system cannot be used.
