How To Program Vmail Tones Into A Phone # String?

Hello all

1 week and 2 days into ownership and I have all the features pretty much known. Still reading thru my last book - the owners manual. and have not seen much on how to program in tones into a string.

So I enter a phone number to enter my work conference call ....lets say I enter for the location a name than the number as:

xxx-xxx-xxxPP123456#

where x = phone #, (it dials the phone #) but it does not than use the PP pauses than enter the touchtone #'s for the passcode. I just see it pass thru the

first phone # digits

Is there a way to automate this? I did see a way to manually enter the tones after but want it automated into speed dial. seem slike these maybe hard pauses, where what i want is a soft pause.

thanks anyone for help here

Yes, this is an aggravation. The LEXUS (Toyota) programmers did not apparently test this feature out.

The best I have found is to put a "wait" into your phone number just before the following tones. Then when you dial the number with your car, the screen will show the remaining tones. You have to press a button on the screen to continue the dialing. I think this feature was really meant for extensions, not what most people need it for (like calling bank accounts, etc.).
