Automatic Lane Change

My G20 has the full assisted drive option and when I viewed a BMW video it showed that if on (say) a dual carriageway, with Automatic Cruise Control and Lane Control active, pressing the indicator stalk to the first position (either direction) will show an arrow icon on the instrument panel and it will automatically move the car to the next lane. But when I do it all that happens is the lane control warning (a steering wheel icon) turns grey meaning the lane control is deactivated. How can I get this to work?

I had to code this to enable it on my G21 built Mar 2020.

Don’t click the stalk all the way, do the half click that normally just causes the turn signal to blink 3 times.

I couldn’t get it to work either, but then when I looked into it, I was told it is not approved in my market (Netherlands) despite also having driving assistant professional. Others have coded it in
