6 CD Changer-switching discs?

I recently purchased a 2001 Camry with the 6-CD changer and JBL speakers. I
compiled 6 CDs and was looking forward to switching among the jazz, rock and
other music I'd compiled. While I can fast forward on any one disc by
scanning, I can't seem to figure out (and the auto manual is no help) how to
switch from one disc to another without playing the current disc all the way
through or scanning to the end selection and having the "changer" go to the
next CD. Is that the way this thing is designed, i.e., to play all
potential 7 or 8 hours sequentially but not allow switching between CDs?

If it is like the in-dash 6-CD changer in our Sequoia, you just push the
buttons labeled 1 through 6 to select the desired CD.

There are 6 preset buttons for the radio. When the CD is playing, these
buttons buttons tell the player which CD you want to listen to. The default
is for the CDs to play in order, 1, 2, 3, etc., but you can press any of the
buttons to jump to a particular CD.

To be honest, I was a little vague on the 1 through 6 buttons because on
some models they're "soft" with the numbers/functions appearing on the
display and on others they are the 1 through 6 radio preset buttons.

Below the CD LED display panel is a horizontal row of push buttons numbered
1 to 6. The last 2 buttons (i.e., #5 and #6) will advance or reverse a disk
at a time.

NOOOoooo! It can't be that simple.

Try holding the next track button a couple' seconds longer.
