For example: access your answering machine

To hear all messages (e.g. code 3) on your answering machine (password 8421) at phone number 12345678, you could call: 12345678w8421p3.

The phone dials 12345678 and waits for the call to be connected. When connected, the phone transmits 8421 (the password), pauses 2.5 seconds, and then sends the last digit. If you find that 2.5 seconds is not long enough for your needs, you can enter several pause characters one after the other to increase the pause time.
