Metric to English Conversion?

I had to use my spare key today..I noticed that for this key the dash 'info center' language is set to German and the speedo and HVAC temp is in metric measurement (Km/H, Celsius). However, the PCM language is set to English - Audio & Nav are all displayed in Enhlish.

Does anyone know how to change the 'dash info center' language to English?

Thanks for any help...

A guess would be to go to setup in the menu, not that i have ever been in a P-car

Tried that already on the PCM - only changes it to English on that display, not on the dash display above the steering wheel...

Didn't see any reference to this in the manual - only to changing the PCM language...
