The display menu options include language, but unless you can read Japanese, I am not sure how you would navigate to find it.

may be some one with original english menu can check language change option is available or not

It is on the Europe Version of the software. Try This:-

Press Start button, then press "I agree symbol" on screen.

Press Info button (Bottom Left-hand button).

Press Language screen symbol (last in list on right-hand side).

A list of National flags & associated languages should appear on screen. Press the screen symbol for the one you want.

Hopefully the buttons either side of the screen are in the same order in the Japan version.

It could be that UK English is not included, but I would guess that USA English probably is.

Good Luck!

This is the reason they import from the UK to SL and not from Japan which would be far cheaper - this can't be done easily (if at all) on the unit supplied in Japanese cars (at least certainly not the one in the RX's that we've been exporting). You'd think there'd be a simple way to change it (can't believe they build different units hard coded by language), but none of the garages and Toyota angents in SL can do it, nor can the supplying dealers in Japan, apparently.
