Trunk-Mounted CD Changer (Option)
If your vehicle has the optional trunk-mounted
CD changer it is located in the rear center storage
compartment. See “Rear Storage Compartments” in
the Index for more information.
With the trunk-mounted CD changer you can play up to
12 discs continuously. Normal size discs may be played
using the trays supplied in the magazine. The small discs
(8 cm) can be played only with specially designed trays.
NOTICE:
Heavy objects in the center storage area which
may shift or slide while driving could damage
your CD changer. Protect your CD changer by
not placing heavy, moveable objects in the center
storage area.
You must first load the magazine with discs before you
can play a compact disc. Each of the 12 trays holds one
disc. Press the button on the back of the magazine and
pull gently on one of the trays. Load the trays from
bottom to top, placing a disc on the tray label side down.
If you load a disc label side up, the disc will not play
and an error will occur. Gently push the tray back into
the magazine slot. Repeat this procedure for loading up
to 12 discs in the magazine.
3-25
Once you have loaded the discs in the magazine,
slide open the door of the compact disc (CD) changer.
Push the magazine into the changer in the direction
of the arrow marked on top of the magazine.
Close the door by sliding it all the way to the left. If the
door is left partially open, the changer will not operate
and an error will occur. When the door is closed, the
changer will begin checking for discs in the magazine.
This will continue for up to two minutes depending on
the number of discs loaded.
3-26
To eject the magazine from the player, slide the CD
changer door all the way open. The magazine will
automatically eject. Remember to keep the door closed
whenever possible to keep dirt and dust from getting
inside the changer.
Whenever a CD magazine with discs is loaded in the
changer, the compact disc symbol will appear on the
radio display. If the CD changer is checking the magazine
for CDs, the compact disc symbol will flash on the
display until the changer is ready to play. When a CD
begins playing, CD will appear in the bottom left corner
and a disc and track number will be displayed. The disc
numbers are listed on the front of the magazine.
All of the CD functions are controlled by the radio
pushbuttons except for ejecting the magazine.

Compact Disc Messages
If an error occurs while trying to play a CD in the
compact disc player or changer, the following conditions
may have caused the error:

The road is too rough. The disc should play when
the road is smoother.

The disc is dirty, scratched, wet or loaded label
side up.

The air is very humid. If so, wait about an hour
and try again.

The CD changer door is open. Completely close
the changer door to restore normal operation.

An empty magazine is in the CD changer.
Try the magazine again with a disc loaded on
one of the trays.

If the CD is not playing correctly, for any other
reason, try a known good CD.
If any error occurs repeatedly or if an error can’t be
corrected, contact your dealer. If your radio displays
an error message, write it down and provide it to your
dealer when reporting the problem.

 

 

Couldn't have said it better if I tried!

 

alright!!! thats a awesome reply!!! thanks again have to try it tom! thanks a million!

 

ok cd player doesnt play burned cds in dash or disk changer. is this just normal?? guess im gonna have to buy a new deck!

 

It might depend on the CDs you're using...I can use reburned in my Z16 w/o any problem (TDK). It has the x12 changer.
I sometimes can use them in our Silverado, but one may cause an issue periodically. It has the x6 in the dash.
Our Trailblazer uses them w/o any problems. It has the x6 in the dash.

 

Save your money and buy an I-Pod. There are lots of threads on how to connect one.

 

yeah i have one but i wanted to add the connector but i dont want to deal with the battery drain!

 

Hook it up correctly and you don't have that problem.
