Default 2014 Suburban LTZ - Change language for voice recognition

Just picked up a nice 2014 Suburban LTZ. The previous owner must have spoke primarily Spanish as all the push to talk/Bluetooth conversations are in Spanish. Does anyone know how to change to English? I cannot find any options in the infotainment/NAV to change this. Many thanks!

I had looked in my physical manual but there is no mention of language in the Infotainment section. QUOTE=mountainmanjoe;496168]did you look in the owner's manual?

The DIC information is already in English. That is no problem to change. My issue is the Push to Talk or Voice Recognition system. All the system speech is in Spanish

You know you can search for keywords right? Like "language"

So I called the Onstar # and eventually talked to (4) separate folks with no resolution. Apparently Onstar is obsolete on 2014 and earlier vehicles because they utilized a 2G cell network and basically GM can no longer connect to the vehicles.

Anybody familiar with restoring the system to factory defaults? Disconnecting battery for a period of time or removing a fuse?

Yeah I ran into the same obsolete problem on my 2013. They wanted over $1k to upgrade. I just don't use it.
