first digit in a phone number for international dialing. The plus sign applies only for on-hook or off-hook
calling.
When you see phone numbers with the + sign in them, you can select and dial the entry without having to add
digits for international calls.

The plus (+) sign displays as the first digit in the phone number. The corresponding tone stops to indicate that
the * has changed to a + sign. You can only hear the tone in off-hook state.
