How to enable SBC hold in 2003 SL55

Hello everyone, I just bought my dream car 2003 SL55 AMG a couple of weeks, I would like to enable the SBC hold function, but My car without equipped CGW, therefore, I cannot change the National code to ROW. Could you please instruct me which control unit should I access and how to enable it step by step, thank you everyone

Cheers,
Joe

Hello, I just saw this video about the enable SBC Hold process in W211. Therefore I would like to get it for my SL55, but my car without CGW, can I change this code in EZS or other relevant control unit? Any idea for me?

SBC is its own control unit in STAR (sensotronic brake control)
