Volvo GPS Navigation System questions - 2001 S60 T5 S60 2001

I recently acquired a pre-owned 2001 S60 T5, and I've been searching for info on the navigation system for several days without any luck. Please help if you can.

My question: My car is equipped with the dash-mounted navigation display screen and the steering wheel navigation controls. However, when the screen rises out of the dash, it displays the following message - "NO DATA DISCS ARE LOADED IN THE SYSTEMS CD CHANGER. PLEASE LOAD CD-ROM DATA DISC(S)". This may not be verbatim, but it is close.

Here's my confusion. My car only has an HU-613 stereo with a single in-dash CD. To the best of my knowlege, there is no CD changer.

Before I spring for $180 to buy a NAVTECH data disc, I want to ensure that my system is truly ready to use it.

Can the map data disc be read by the in-dash CD player, or must I install a factory changer in order to use the navigation system? Or am I overlooking something obvious?

I apologize for such a silly question, but I've read the owner's manual cover to cover and it does not even mention the words "navigation" or "GPS" anywhere. I am at a loss.

Thanks - TNT
