| Hi, not really a problem, but our s2 25 estates dot matrix reads French. I`m sure this is because someone has filled all the gaps in the fuse box, but unfortunately I can`t find a book so I can find where the gaps should be, any help much appreciated. |

| I feel it's really cool that the car is talking to you in it's native tongue; I've got one of mine that's resolutely French When it's telling you all sorts of exotic sounding things it's a far nicer thing that screaming tailgate not closed properly or whatever... but if you must; Language...........................Fuse 4.....Fuse 8.....Fuse 12 French.................................Yes..........Yes..........Yes English.................................Yes..........Yes..........No German................................Yes..........No..........Yes Italian...................................No..........Yes..........No Spanish................................Yes..........No...........No Dutch...................................No..........Yes..........Yes Upper connector row............Line 6......Line 7......Line 8 If you want a bossy car use the German fuse positions!

| Sorry, I assumed it was a S2 but didn't label it clear! Dean, do we both get titled 'anorak of the day' for having the handbook beside the computer!? Andrew |

| I wonder if there's a hidden Jamaican fuse setting? What would it be telling you? Maybe not a good idea - it wouldn't say anything being so laid back it'll hardly notice what's going on!!  Andrew |

| One of my XMs spoke in French/German whatever you did to the fuses - sold it like it. |

| I really think the car SHOULD have spoken, like the Renault 25 did! I loved that and would still want one just for the Voice! Sad eh!!!??? Rgds PAul |
