How revert this coding

If you have coded it despite the warning, the automatic key assignment must be deactivated. To do this, go to the infotainment system, select "User -> Setup -> Automatic Key Assignment," and disable this feature. After that, restart the MIB, either by holding the "Power" button for about 20 seconds or locking the vehicle and waiting for 15 minutes.

If key assignment is still needed:
1. Re-enable the key assignment.
2. Lock the vehicle with key 1.
3. Unlock the vehicle with key 1.
4. Select the user.
5. Lock the vehicle with key 1 and wait for 15 minutes.
6. Repeat the same process with key 2.
