Default 12 disc cd changer

Hi everyone,

I just traded my FRC in on a gorgeous C5 coupe and it has a 12 disc changer in it. I looked at the manual for intructions for use but i must be doing somthing wrong. How do you remove the cartridge to add/remove cd's? I slide the cover to the right and i see the cartridge but from there i dont know what to do. How does it eject? Thanks for the help, im gonna feel dumb when i figure out what im doing wrong.

Pete

To remove the cart I believe you open the slide door and push the cart down and let go.

Thats what i assumed. Its definately stuck in there. I read some posts from others with the same problem. One guy resolved it by taking the unit off the mounting bracket and putting it on its side while active. He said the stuck CD would fall back in to place and would allow it to open. Sounds like there where lots of problems with these. Ill give it a go when i get a little free time.

Its been so long since i removed it from the car, but I thought it either has a botton or you just press it down and it should pop up and slide out.
