There is an owners manual here:  http://www.helpowl.com/manuals/Garmin/nuvi1490LMT/76335

To clear the unit back to factory default hold your finger on the lower right corner of the screen while turning the unit on.  Keep your finger pressed until a pop-up menu appears.  Select YES to clear the device.  All settings will be reset.  It should come up in English after the reset.

You will have to reset it for English. You will need to have it on, choose the wrench, then gears, 5th and second tab. Then you will be able to pick English as your language.
