Q: How to reset the language on Apple TV during initial setup

I picked English, but somehow, perhaps by picking Canada, it reverted to French instructions for the rest of setup... which I can't understand, so I can't do the setup. So I can't get into the settings to reset, and I've tried the instructions provided to reset to factory settings here: How to restart your Apple TV - Apple Support to no avail. Please help, or I'll have to take this thing back to the store.

    Apple TV 4

    Press the ‘Home Screen’ button on the remote to return to the Home Screen menu and locate and select settings (with the gears icon), select the top option in the menu, then scroll down and select the second to last option from the next screen, this brings up a list of languages, select yours. The Apple TV needs to restart to change language and asks you to confirm this, when it does this select the top option.
