Default CD Changer Help?

Hey Guys,
I got my SC400 today. I love the car. But I went to put a few CDs in the CD changer and I couldn't really figured it out so I looked in the manual.

The eject button is always lit up. I pressed it, pulled the magazine out, and put in 2 CDs. I put the magazine back in, closed the CD Changer and the eject button never went out and stood on while I did all of that.
Then I went in the car and pressed the CD button on the headunit and nothing happens.

What am I doing wrong??
The CDs are all in the proper spots, with the labels face up.

I thought about it, maybe it doesn't play CD-Rs? None of the CDs I have are official.

First step would be to try original CDs. But I see nothing wrong with CD-Rs.

Second step would be to try them label down. I'm not sure if the SC used Pioneer units, but the older Pioneer changers (like what's in my GS) were all lable side down. If it is a Pioneer, the trays themselves will say something about label side down.

cdvmagic: There are a lot of reasons people use CD-Rs. Recording from tapes, records, video, etc., keeping originals safe, Some people make all their own CDs from regular CDs since it's very rare for a regular CD to have 80 straight minutes worth of good music on it. That way, it's possible to get a full 480 minutes of music without having to skip songs and reload the changer.
