Press TOOLS (the spanner icon in the bottom right of the screen with WHERE TO and VIEW MAP)

This takes you to a screen with 3 items on it; VOICE, TEXT LANGUAGE and KEYBOARD
Press VOICE and select the name of an English speaking person to change the voice instructions to English. Press TEXT LANGUAGE and change it to English or American English if you're in the USA
The TEXT LAGUAGE should be showing DEUTCH beside it (the German word for German)
On the page that shows WHERE TO and VIEW MAP press TOOLS (the spanner symbol at the bottom right corner)
