The <font color="#323232">System Default Language</font> setting under <font color="#323232">Settings &gt; System Settings &gt; General &gt; Language</font> determines what language to use if the locale of the device cannot be determined, or the corresponding language is not supported. It also determines the default language for the self-support user portal (SSP) pages. The languages available for this setting are derived from the languages in the<font color="#323232"> Enabled Languages</font> list.
