Enable Video in motion on MMI

[5F - Information Electr.] [Advanced ID - 1A] Note 1st Serial number
[Security Access] Enter Digits 6, 13, 10, 14, 11 of the 1st Serial number
[Adaptation - 10] -> Channel 48

With this nothing you can. Where is the explanation for Instructions 2G or Instructions 3G:
I miss a lot of explanation and this:
Manually Decoding Your Security Code or Automatic VIM Generator

When you copy an instructions - copy a complete instructions not just one part
