When entering phone numbers into the phonebook on my 2007 Prius, there are Pause and Wait buttons. What is their function? I need to enter a pause as part of a phone number to dial an extension, I used the Pause button on the console, it entered a "p" into the number, but when I use the number it just stops where the p is. Anybody know how to get a 2-second pause in a number? Thanks, Craig
Enter the phone number, push P, and enter the extension. Save. When youselect that number for calling, the number will dial, and when you are ready push the "send tone" button and the ext. will then dial.
Thanks for the quick response! I dialed a number with a p , but a "send tone" button did not appear anywhere on the screen. Any thoughts on what I should try next? Thanks, Craig

Now when you dial, the send tone button should appear when you dial the number. The could be alot better at explaining these two features and their functions.

Yes, Toyota could most definitely have done a much better job informing everyone about the functions of the Pause and Wait buttons.
are you making the "p" and "w" we are talking about with the "pause" and 'wait" buttons on the screen? It works for me.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(9G-man @ Jun 25 2007, 07:06 PM) [snapback]467874[/snapback]</div> Yes I am. I re-entered the number, first with the "p" using the Pause button, and then with the "w" using the wait button. When I dial the number, it gets to the w or p and then stops, but no other buttons appear on the screen. Do I need to be moving for this to happen, or should the buttons appear when stopped as well? Do you have the navigation system? I do not. thanks, Craig
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(9G-man @ Jun 25 2007, 07:06 PM) [snapback]467874[/snapback]</div> Eureka!!! I figured it out. I entered a phone number, followed by a "w", followed by an extension. Then, I dialed the number, pressed the "0-9" button, a new screen came up and there was the extension. Then I pressed the "Send" button and it dialed the extension. I also figured out that if you include a "p" in the number , the "Speed tone" button appears on the second screen, instead of Send, and if you press it you go to the Speed Tone screen. Very convoluted and somewhat dangerous while driving.
