I think after about a week of use, you get to know your head unit pretty
well and can instinctively feel for all the buttons. The Kenwood doesn't
have a mute button as such, but an attenuator which drops the volume
considerably and the nice touch is that when you press it again, the music
fades back in which has got to be much better for speakers if you've got a
particularly high powered system.
