If a pause can be programmed into your telephone, you can store the AUTOBUS number in its memory, as well as the sequence of keys to obtain the schedule for the next three buses. You must enter the following: 288-6287, pause, 8, pause, 1, pause, 1, pause, the five-digit bus stop code followed by #, and the bus route number followed by #. If your bus stop is served by a single bus route, there is no need to specify the bus route number, and you will obtain your schedule in less than 35 seconds. Because each telephone model has its own particularities, programming pauses will vary accordingly. Please consult your telephone’s user guide or your telephone service provider for programming instructions.

For AUTOBUS, any given day begins at midnight. For example, to obtain the schedule for a regular bus route, for half past midnight on a Friday night, you must request the schedule for Saturday at 00:30. However, when you call ahead of time for schedule information about a nighttime bus route, the system will specify "for schedules from Friday night to Saturday morning".

To obtain the schedule for several routes at different bus stops without having to call back, simply press * to return to the main menu and enter the information needed to obtain the schedule for another bus route.
