The multiple compact disc (CD) changer is available on both the Chevrolet and Pontiac vehicles. The CD changer is located on the left side of the rear compartment floor pan. The CD changer features a 12 disc removable magazine. The disc numbers are listed on the front of the disc magazine. The radio control buttons control all of the CD changer functions except for ejecting the disc magazine. The compact disc symbol appears on the radio display when a disc magazine is loaded in the changer.

Gently press the tray back into the magazine slot.

Repeat these steps in order to insert as many as 12 compact discs.
