WTF...are you kidding?


I would say read the manual but by the nature of your question I got to think that isn't possible.

Do you mean the dvd player for the nav? I believe it's under the console lid between the rear seats.

If this isn't a joke, it should be...

ok, I'm acting on the assumption your serious.

In the photo below is a shot of the radio controls. You see the giant red circle, thats your volume control. Just above it and right below the fm/am/cd/tape buttons is a slot. If you stick a cd into that slot, that's where your cd's load.

This question definitely deserves some type of special reward...


Steve, they get feed into the slot edge first, it's not like a cd player at home. Do you have a slot above your volume dial. I'm pretty sure the cd is standard equipment, so it should be there...

Did you buy a used 8? You're going to have to post a picture otherwise I hope that your seeing eye dog knows how to drive.

In Germany for example the CD-Player is not necessarily standard equipment. I had to buy it seperatly. In this case there is a blank cover instead of a slot in the radio controls. Maybe steven888 has also no CD-Player installed?!

It's hard to tell from the lighting on that picture, but it looks like there is indeed a CD slot in that picture.

I've not put a new CD in in a while, but don't you have to hit the Eject button to get it to prompt to feed one in?

Edit, that's right, the load button.

I'll humour you...

Right below the button that says "CD" is a horizontal SLOT that you put the CDs into. You have to press the "Load" button on the left-hand side before you can load a CD, though.

Looking at his picture, I can't clearly see if there's a load or eject button there?

Did you hit the CD button then hit Load? It should prompt you to insert a CD.

Even the single disk players have a load button even though only a changer needs a load button. You can't go by the buttons.

steve, run your finger from the top of the volume **** until you feel that small slot opening just below your cd button. That's you cd player. you load cd's in it like putting coins into a vending machine. If you have a 6 cd holder you will have to hit the load button first, but if it's only a single cd player, all you have to do is slightly push it into the slot and the player will load it and it plays...

unless jap versions are different from what the rest of us are getting...

The CD player is in the trunk. It kinda looks like a emergency roadside case.
