I brought HC 5000 form Japan and don't observe a paragraph print on the box

"This appliance is designed for used in Japan only and can not be used in any other country. No servicing is available outside of Japan"

Now it have only Japan language . Can it change to English ? by any method Please.

UH oh...i ordered one and may be in the same boat....other than using an English manual, is there an upgrade to switch the language over?

Can not switch to orther language. I believe that it have the code lock and can decode by service mode but I don't know the method? Any one have the problem same this case Help pls.

Never seen one from Japan, but I would ask your seller about it. They should know if/how it can be done.
