Put the car in park or neutral, use the menu button to scroll through the options quickly and setup should appear.. It has the language menu.. Mines in Japanese.. But it's only for certain words...

Just figured it out The Park brake must be on even in an automatic transmission to acces the menu button.
I was sitting in the drivers seat wondering that it must be something simple... and it was turn the key to the on switch WITH the park brake on tap through the info button through the various menu's find the menu option and change em..
I feel like a fool... LOL
Thanks for your help
I will update my profile with some pics
We had lots of snow up here in Northern Central Ontario, Canada.
Had loads of fun in my Ralliart, LOADS of Fun....

Sorry, i didnt have the exact details, i just do it by instinct...


It's hilarious, I've told a few people about this feature, and they think I'm fucking with em... I've tried all the languages for fun, but panicked a couple times when the limp mode kicked in, and My car was giving me warnings in German..

Once I was trying to pair my phone and the lady suddenly asked me whether I want to change the language to German. I said no and the lady did it anyway and started speaking German.

Fortunately, the language menu display the available languages in native characters. Otherwise I wouldn't know what English is in German.
