G-BOOK SYSTEM(w/ Telematics Transceiver) SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

  1. G-BOOK SYSTEM OUTLINE

    1. 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).

    2. 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.

    3. The user needs to follow the instructions on the multi-display assembly screen to start using the G-BOOK system service after applying for the service at a dealership.

    Map Light Assembly

    • Telephone Microphone Assembly

    • When the operator service is used: Sends the microphone voice signal to the multi-media module receiver assembly.

    • When an emergency call is made: Sends the microphone voice signal to the telematics transceiver.

    Telephone Antenna Assembly

    Sends and receives the data and voice signals used for the G-BOOK service through a communication network.

    Telematics Transceiver

    • Uses the telephone antenna assembly to send and receive the data and voice signals used for the G-BOOK service through a communication network.

      • When the operator service is used: Sends the received voice signal to the multi-media module receiver assembly.

      • When the operator service is used: Sends the sent voice signal from the multi-media module receiver assembly to the telephone antenna assembly.

      • When an emergency call is made: Sends the received voice signal to the vehicle speakers.

      • When an emergency call is made: Receives the sent voice signal from the telephone microphone assembly.

      • When an emergency call is made: Sends a mute signal to the stereo component amplifier assembly. (Mute function becomes active during the call.)

      • When an emergency call is made: Sends vehicle location information to the G-BOOK center.

      • When a warning occurs, the telematics transceiver receives a warning ON signal from the combination meter assembly via CAN communication and sends it to the G-BOOK center.

      • When the theft deterrent system is activated, the telematics transceiver sends information that the security horn has sounded to the G-BOOK center.

    Mayday Battery (Back-up Battery)

    • When automatic emergency call is performed, the mayday battery provides power to the DCM.

    • When a manual emergency call is made, the mayday battery is not used as the power source.

    • The mayday battery conducts a self-diagnosis every time the engine switch is turned on (IG), and after an automatic emergency call or manual emergency call is made, and the result is sent to the DCM.

    Navigation Antenna Assembly

    Receives GPS radio waves and sends them to the multi-media module receiver assembly.

    Main Body ECU (Multiplex Network Body ECU)

    Sends a security horn sounding signal to the telematics transceiver when the theft deterrent system is activated.

    Multi-media Module Receiver Assembly

    • Sends and receives the data used for the G-BOOK service to and from the telematics transceiver using a telematics data signal.

      • When the operator service is used: Sends the sent voice signal from the telephone microphone assembly to the telematics transceiver.

      • When the operator service is used: Sends the received voice signal from the telematics transceiver to the stereo component amplifier assembly using a MOST signal.

      • Sends vehicle location information to the telematics transceiver.

    Stereo Component Amplifier Assembly

    Receives the received voice signal sent from the multi-media module receiver assembly as a sound signal and outputs it as sound from the front No. 2 speaker assembly RH and front No. 3 speaker assembly RH via the telematics transceiver. (When the operator service is used.)

    Center Airbag Sensor Assembly

    Sends an activation signal to the telematics transceiver when airbags deploy. (An automatic emergency call is made.)

    Combination Meter Assembly

    Sends a warning signal to the telematics transceiver via CAN communication when a warning occurs.

  3. DEVICE USED FOR G-BOOK SYSTEM COMMUNICATION

    1. The telematics transceiver is used for data communication or emergency call service telephone calls and operator service telephone calls.

    2. The hands-free function does not use the telematics transceiver. A user's "Bluetooth" compatible cellular phone needs to be used.

    3. Perform the following if the device used for G-BOOK system communication is replaced.

      Tip:

      • If the multi-media module receiver assembly or the telematics transceiver is replaced on vehicles that do not have a contract for the G-BOOK service, perform vehicle contract setting.

      • If the multi-media module receiver assembly or the telematics transceiver is replaced on vehicles that have a contract for the G-BOOK service, perform the vehicle contract setting and the procedure to resume the G-BOOK service to start the emergency call service.

  12. WARNING NOTIFICATION FUNCTION

    Note:

    • Before performing inspections or repairs which may cause warning messages or DTCs to occur, such as a simulation test or road test, it is necessary to activate warning notification restraint mode so that the G-BOOK center does not recognize the warnings as real ones.

    • Warning notification restraint mode can be entered by using the GTS or operating the multi-display assembly.

    Tip:

    The warning notification function sends a warning ON signal, received from the combination meter assembly via CAN communication, to the G-BOOK center using the G-BOOK device if a warning is displayed in the vehicle due to a vehicle malfunction.

    1. Warning notification restraint mode

      Tip:

      To cancel warning notification restraint mode, turn the engine switch off and on (IG) to display the service mode screen and cancel warning notification restraint mode.
