In some cases you may need to dial a phone number with a pause (p - pause) followed by an extension to be entered. For example:

23456854pp897745874

Call 23456854 and enter number 897745874 after a pause. In that case you need:

  • To Find out the appropriate pause character for your particular phone.

Check your phone's user manual to learn the letter or character that indicates a pause. Different telephones use different characters

  • Use a commma as a pause if you cannot find the real pause character for your phone.

This is the most common pause character in phones (other phones use letter p or symbols * #)

  • Enter the number your phone needs to dial, continue with a pause character and add the destination to be entered after pause

into your phone address book. For example save such number (these are JUST examples):

23456854pp897745874

or for example

23456854,,897745874
  • Save the new number to the phone memory
  • Dial the number to test, listen as your phone dials to make sure that it is pausing long enough.
