resetting language

Just got a sansa clip… and the default language seems to be something like Arabic.  I dont know Arabic.  Any clue how to reset it?  

Is it a Clip or Clip+? There are step-by-step button presses here (if it’s the Clip+) that will get you to the Language Settings.

Otherwise, if it’s the original Clip, this Knowledge Base article can probably help.

I forget, but:  when you reapply the firmware to the player (see the firmware upgrade sticky thread at the top of the forum), do you choose the language in the process?  That could be an easy solution.
