How to access the Service Menu for the Radio Module E70 / Navigation professional

Hi,

does anyone know how to access the service mode menu for radio module bmw X5, E70 with navigation professional.

I have bought a X5 U.S. version and the radio still thinks it is in the U.S. I can not select frequencies like 104.2, 104.4 and so on - thats needed for europe.

I am looking for a guide on how to change the AREAD in the radio.

All I have found is this, but it needs a SELECT knob - my E70 has none... Do you know a guide like this that is working with a 2008 X5?



Procedure for accessing the Service Menu for the Radio Module on X5's equipped with Navigation


1. Turn on your car
2. If the radio is on, turn it off
3. Turn the radio on

4. Immediatly push and hold the SELECT button until the radio serial number shows (5 to 10 seconds)

5. Use the < > keys to cycle through the menu

To set your radio to USA mode, se the < > keys to cycle through the menu until you see the AREA mode. The radio will likely be set to NOAREA. Use the 1 or 2 buttons to switch to different areas-- set it to US.

* Turn the radio off to save the settings

* Turn the radio back on and use it as normal.





If any one has a instraction of how to do I would be grateful.
Thank you!
