• ENTER CHARACTERS INTO A PHONE NUMBER FIELD

While entering numbers into a phone number field, press the star key
(

) as many times as necessary until one of the following special

characters appears:

*

Bypass an automated attendant.

+

Precede an international telephone number.

p

Create a pause when a number is dialed. The numbers you enter after
this special character are automatically sent as touch tones after a
2.5-second pause. For example, the characters after the “p” could be
a PIN number that you are required to enter when you call the phone
number.

w

Create a wait when a number is dialed. Your phone “waits” for you to
press

before it sends the string of numbers as touch tones. The

difference between “p” and “w” is that if you use “w”, you can control
when the touch tones are sent.
