    Thank you verry much for your answer, but it isn't solve my problem. I searched every "corner" of menu and ...nothing. My lcd is full of signs (japan language). I don't know this signs. The dedicated menu for languages doesn't exist. There is one globe (the earth) only with date and hour, but NO LANGUAGE. I think is a software problem.

    Thank you, anyway!

I might have a solution...

Switch on the handycam.
In the bottom left corner there will be two rectangles with writing. Click on right one.
There are two arrows on the left side on the screen. Go down to the third menu (3/3) by tapping the bottom arrow two times.
There should be 5 boxes with writing in them. One of them may say Language, click on it. It is the one to 1 right and 1 bottom of the first information box.
Select the box under the first information box. The one you should choose should say ENGLISH on it.
Done! I hope...

Sorry if this does not help.

KENWOOD MDV 727DT MDV 626??? youtube it and many ask there, but on answers but this.

learn to google and youtube.
learn that non japan exports of NAV box do not have language sets.
yes there are 3 kinds, Universal, japan only or some other language only models.

if the button seen hit above is missing that means Japan only model.

Unfortunately, the language is set in the firmware and cannot be changed. So, to change the language requires that the unit itself be replaced. I wish I had better news for you but that's is the way these systems are distributed.
if the language menu is missing there.

There are very few Kenwood Units that have the ability to change Language, and I do not see the MDV-727DT as being one of them.

Bought a car from Japan with Alpine X9NX2 headunit. Unfortunately, all is in Japan. Can I somehow switch language to English?

Some units are only in Japanese because they are specifically for the Japanese home market. There is a trick. Get a smartphone with the Google Translate App on it and use the camera feature to translate what is seen on screen. Look for Settings / Language.
