Pontiac 2005 Grand Prix - Manual (Page 208)

Playing a CD
Insert a CD partway into the slot, label side up. The
player will pull it in and the CD should begin playing.
If you want to insert a CD when the ignition is off, first
press the eject button or push the RCL knob. If you
insert a CD with the radio off and the ignition on, it will
start to play.
The CD symbol will appear on the display when a CD
is loaded. The track number will appear on the display,
as each new track starts to play.
If the ignition or the radio is turned off with a CD in the
player, it will stay in the player. When the ignition or
the radio is turned on, the CD will start playing where
it stopped, if it was the last selected audio source.
The CD player can play the smaller 3 inch (8 cm) single
CDs with an adapter ring. Full-size CDs and the
smaller CDs are loaded in the same manner.
If playing a CD-R the sound quality may be reduced
due to CD-R quality, the method of recording, the quality
of the music that has been recorded, and the way the
CD-R has been handled. There may be an increase
in skipping, difficulty in finding tracks, and/or difficulty in
loading and ejecting. If these problems occur try a
known good CD.
Do not add paper labels to CDs, they could get caught
in the CD player.
If an error appears on the display, see “CD Messages”
later in this section.
