Installing New Radio

Hello everyone, new here.

I have a slight dilema in my installing of a new radio.

 

Brief description: I have a 2005 Yukon Denali that has xm radio, am/fm radio, and navigation touch screen. The vehicle came with a 6-disc cd changer at the bottom of the console. The cd changer never worked when I bought it and the dealership was giving me a hard time in replacing it. So I bought a new stereo (VRCD500-SDU) that can play cd's, ipod input, usb input, and sd card input. I took the old cd changer out and there was 6 cd's stuck in there. Now when I was trying to hook up my new stereo to the wiring in my vehicle, the wires weren't matching up. I got a wire diagram off of google: http://home.bak.rr.com/homeindex/changer.JPG which seems to match up with the one in my vehicle. I got the new stereo to turn on, but my vehicle is not recognizing it, meaning I can't get anything to play from my new stereo to my speakers. I can't even switch over to it. Can anyone help me, maybe I hooked the wrong wires together?

 

The wiring for my truck according to the website above says I only have one left and right speaker wire, but my new stereo came with 2 wires (+, -) for each speaker (RF, LF, RR, LR). My stereo also came with a wire for my fuse and one for the ignition. I had to connect both wires to the power volt wire for my vehicle to get it to work. I don't know which wire to hook up to the amplifier remote/power antenna wire in my stereo? And which of my speaker wires do I connect to the speaker wires in my vehicle (+)? or (-)? I also have a remote playback audio signal wire in my truck, which wire on my stereo do I connect it to? Could anyone help? I am desperately trying to get this hooked up this weekend.
