Default Downloading MP3 Tunes Through USB Port

My 2008 Town and Country has a USB port for downloading tunes to a 20 mb hard drive. The screen gives me the option to download from a CD or through USB. Choosing USB I get "downloading" and "complete" prompts, but am unable to access playlist or tunes themselves.
Simple step I'm missing, or is really complex??
Thanks,
Rob

May have figured this one out on my own. Found a screen that shows GB available and used. Comes up "zeros", i.e. this function not available.
Makes me wonder what the USB port is for, but appears that, like the scarecrow in the Wizard of Oz, my sound system has no brain.

My 2010 T&C has a 30 gig HD and I have no trouble copying MP3 files from a flash drive in the USB port.

I access it from the 'Manage HDD' option on one of the screens.

My T&C has the RBZ radio.

Still working on it. Radio face says things like "hard drive, mp3, etc." I think it's there. Just haven't found it yet. Able to download, and even get "green light, download complete" screens, but can't access anything to playback.

Default 2008 T & C Sound System

2008 Chrysler Town & Country Radio Photo - Motor Trend Magazine

For what it's worth, and if anyone has the time, the above link shows what I believe is my sound system.
Hardly a picture in the nearly 1" thick owners manual. Certainly nothing to distinguish a Sales Code RES from a Sales Code REN, etc. Maybe this old fart is finally out of his league when it comes to technology. If I knew for sure which unit I had, maybe I could have more luck wading through the instructions.
Is there anywhere I could find photo i.d.'s that would say "This is your unit" and then tell me how to make it sing?
Thanks,
Rob

O.K.
Call off the hounds.
Found the Sales code, REN (lower right corner of face plate) and now I at least know which directions I'm supposed to be able to follow.

The sales code is printed on the face of the radio in 1/8 inch white letters, Usually somwhere on the lower right corner
