Comand engineering hidden menu

Hello to everyone! We have a US 2012 Mercedes GL. We just moved to Europe and we need to access the engineering hidden comand menu in order to change the zone so that command can be able to read the European maps. A friend was able to do it but with another type of Mercedes (I know that once I get to the engineering menu and change the zone I will need to buy the CD containing the European maps and also to obtain from Mercedes the license key that command will ask me but I am one step behind that since I am enable to get to the hidden menu). I will mostly appreciate any tips to access the command hidden engineering menu! Huge Thanks!!!

Consider copying the EuroDVD to a region free code or to the Japan code, there are a few DVD burning software will allow you to do this. STAR may allow you to do this 1 or 2 times then it locks.

Thank you very much! Do you know if that has worked before? If not I´ll try it if I am not able to access the hidden menu (I know as a fact that if I´m able to change the region of command it will work), hopefully someone would tell me how...
