3-5-7 trick on 2005 US-spec Maybach

Has anyone had luck using the 3-5-7 trick on a US-spec Maybach? I couldn't get it to work on one here. I was curious as to what the other available settings might be.

Also of note, the 220 remote control doesn't work perfectly for the 240 rear screens.

Do the non-US versions have better ability to change the settings? Although we can select 240 mode on the W211/R171 COMAND here, it doesn't seem to get all the features/abilities that the real W240 COMAND has... and I couldn't get much out of the actual W240 COMAND... sigh.
