Making and Receiving Phone Calls

You can also produce a wait character. Your phone dials the digits preceding the wait character, waits for the call to connect, then prompts you for confirmation before it sends the remaining digit(s). To produce the wait character, press and hold * until the pause character p appears, then press * again until the wait character w appears

Pause—A Working Example.

Suppose, for example, you have a tone-based voicemail system on 555-6911, with a mailbox number 1066 and password 2001. You would dial as follows and then press Send N:

5556911p1066p2001

The first part of the number (5556911) dials the voicemail system.

Next, the first pause produces a three-second delay (which allows time to complete the connection).

The phone then sends the tones for 1066 to select the mailbox.

The second pause produces another three-second delay.

The phone sends the tones for 2001 as the password.
