You know, it's unsafe to drive and talk on your cell phone at the same time; perhaps you should turn your phone off when you're in the car so you don't become distracted by the decision of what button to push.

My old alpine had a nice feature, the attention button (similar to mute) cuts the volume by like 70% or something like that. It's great if you need to lower the volume real quick but don't want it off totally. What's great is that it comes back to full volume gradually when you press the button again, instead of just blasting your ears off. It also had a pause button. Two very nice features...

I think that's kind of stupid to have the mute button pause the CD too. Why didn't they just call it "Pause"? At least the Scion HU does what it's supposed to do. It's a mute button. The mute button mutes the sound. If it paused the CD too I'm sure they would've called it the "Pause" button. If anything Mercedes doesn't make sense. lol

it would be nice if the mute did pause the cd but a mute button is to MUTE the sounds not to pause a cd.

since its a cd u can always just replay the track after you hang up

i'd rather just have a pause button. or like on my old HU in another car, a button that dramatically drops the volume, but its still audible; the equivelant of going from say, 40 to 5 on our HUs with the press of a button. it was nice and a lot better feature.

i just thought of this today while on the phone with Brad, the Scikotics leader guy here and we realized that we have a power button that keeps it's place when you turn it back on, so it's basically a pause button that turns off the lights too, if you wanna try that, go for it.

i think perspective has been lost
maybe by asking the wrong way
I honestly think it sucks that the HU doesnt have a pause button
the way i see it pause have been in cd players since they came out
this one just doesnt have it
ive always been used to that pause button
now ive gotten used to switching to FM and then muting quickly
didnt even think abt turning it off
oh well
any way just in case if any1 knows if theres a way to pause please post, dont judge
thanks guys

While I have now spent enough time in the tC to understand your point, it's not there, so you need to get a round it.
I would agree - but not for the CD - for the iPod. Maybe there is a way to pause the iPod besides the power button, but the mute will have to do.
