Dialling using a pause
When you call an automated system, like a banking
service, you are required to enter a password or an
account number. Instead of manually entering the
numbers each time, you can enter the necessary DTMF
tones separated by pauses before dialling.
Note
: DTMF tones are the tones you hear when you press the
number keys. DTMF tones allow you to communicate
with computerised telephone systems, for example,
voice mailboxes or telebanking systems.
1. Enter the phone number you want to dial, such as a
bank’s teleservice number.
2. Press
repeatedly to insert a pause.
You can use two types of pauses:
•
p
: inserts a pause of approximately two seconds
between numbers. The numbers following “p” are
sent automatically.
•
w
: if you use a pause of this type, the remaining
sequence is not sent until you press
.
3. Enter a number to be sent after the pause, such as
your account number, PIN, etc.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to add more pauses and
numbers, if necessary.
5. Press
to make a call.
