Hi, I need to change the dash language on my car listed above (4jj1 3.0l turbo engine) from Japanese to English.
Thanks for your help.

I would call a dealer if the process is not in the owners manual. Nothing I can find explains how or if it can be changed without some programming equipment from a dealer.

the 2012 model often does not support multiple language options in all regions, especially if it's a Japanese domestic model (JDM), which often comes with Japanese-only menus.
