84 Managing the Phone Book
Using Pauses in Numbers
When you call automated systems, a recorded
message prompts you for numbers such as PIN
numbers and account numbers. You can store
these numbers in the same memory location as the
automated system’s access number. Separate the
numbers with “pauses”—special characters that tell
your phone to wait a few seconds before sending
additional numbers—and store the string in the
same way you would other numbers.
Tip:
You can
store 32
characters in a
phone memory
location, or 20
characters in a
SIM card
memory
location. A
pause is equal
to one
character.

Enter Pauses in Numbers

1. Enter the phone number you use to access
the automated system.
2. Press and hold *. You will see a ® (pause)
character inserted into the number entry.
3. Enter the next group of numbers. For
example, enter your PIN number. If the
automated system requires a * or #, enter
those symbols, too.
4. Repeat steps 2 to 3 as many times as
necessary.
5. To store the entry follow the procedures in
“Add an Entry” on page 80.
