Default The "set" button on GS430 steering wheel?

What does it do? I looked thru the manual and couldn't find anything about it. I once pressed it by accident and the radio volume went to MAX and scare the hell out of me...can someone shed some light on this? Thanks!

It is use to set desire volume setting. I use it like a mute button. Like when I receive a cell phone call or order fast food I would quick press the SET button to reduce the volume instantly. To set the volume you first adjust the volume you want to set. Hold the SET button for a few second until it beeps to set into memory.

I use mine as an eject button.

I set it to the max volume. Car jackers vomit instantly.

I have accidently hit the set button a few times and mine was set on max volume. I thought the speakers were going to blow out. I am glad to know that it can be used as a mute button.
