Unhappy My computer and radio are in french plz help

Hi,
My first post! I just picked up my new 08 SS 2 days ago and the computer system is all in french, I guess I got a Quebec car. Does anyone know how to change it back to english? I hope I'm posting this in the right spot, forgive my ignorance.

Turn key to run position
hold down the info button on steering wheel
after a few seconds, release and then hit the info button again and you can then scroll though.
to change the presets you hold down the rest button and it will go through whatever options are available also you will find this in your owners manual

Thanks for all the help, looks like I`ve got it figured out and learned some things I didn`t know about at the same time.

Welcome to the group! I had mine set for French just to amuse my wife who was born and raised in France. She's been a U.S. citizen for 25 years, but get her angry and she swears like a pirate in English, French, Polish, and Texan.
