I had the same problem last week. I had to call GE to get it resolved. Hold the skip button done a few seconds and it should change back to english.

I contacted the mfg Thomson and they solved this for me, hold the skip button for 2-3 seconds and it will change back to English. You can also get a copy of the manual online at www.thompsonnetwork.com. you only need to enter the numeric numbers for the model ie:
25861 and it will bring up the manual.

The answering machine is in a different language, simply press and hold the "Skip" key for about 3-5 seconds, and it will automatically tell you which language has been selected. It works like a toggle switch so you can go back and forth.

The "double arrows" trick worked for my old GE as well! Thanks!

I have had this problems for a while on my Motorola answering machine and never got to chance to find out how to fix it. It worked!!! I pressed down the "double arrows" bottom for a few seconds, now I have English on the answering machine again. Thanks.

Answering Machine Language

Just as the other answers that were left...you just have to press the skip button. Just make sure that you press announce on the cradle...not on the phone...then when you hear the voice in Spanish just press and HOLD the skip button until it changes to English. Good Luck
