Welcome
Thank you for purchasing Cingular’s FastForward. Now you
can easily forward incoming calls made to your Cingular Wireless
phone to your existing home or work phone.
This user guide will provide you with everything you need
to set up and enjoy the convenience of seamless call forwarding
from your wireless phone to another location.
There are numerous other benefits too. They are shared
throughout this guide.
The phone book within your compatible handset
must be set up prior to using the FastForward device.

Using FastForward
FastForward allows you to forward your incoming wireless calls
to your local home or office number. It’s simple to use and easy
to set up. Once you’ve established and set up your forwarding
number (see page 7), just insert your wireless phone into the
device cradle and your calls are now forwarded. To cancel call
forward, simply press the Cancel button, wait for the Forward
indicator to extinguish, and remove the handset from the device.
For example, when you walk in the door at home, insert your
Cingular Wireless phone into the device, and calls that would have
gone to your wireless phone will now ring all landline telephones
in your home that operate on the forwarded-to number.
When leaving your home, simply press the Cancel button on
the device, and incoming wireless calls are redirected to your
wireless phone. FastForward works the same way when you’re
forwarding wireless calls to your office number.
FastForward is compatible with the Sony Ericsson T61z, T62u, T226
T306, T316, T68i and T68m series of phones from Cingular Wireless.

while your incoming calls are forwarded to another number.
Simply remove the wireless phone from the FastForward device
without pressing the Cancel button. The FastForward device will
sound and flash an alert to remind you that incoming calls are
still forwarded. You may now place outgoing calls as normal.
This feature is great when the kids are on the home phone and

simply replace the handset back into the base. As always, when
you are ready to stop forwarding calls, simply press the Cancel
button and allow the Forward indicator to extinguish before
removing the handset.

Canceling call forwarding is easy. Just press the Cancel button
on the front of the FastForward device and wait for the Forward

If your wireless phone is removed from the device without pressing
the Cancel button, your wireless calls are still forwarded to the
number you indicated. You can still cancel call forwarding from
your wireless phone by pressing ##21# Send.
When you arrive back at the FastForward device, the Forward
indicator may still be illuminated. You may simply insert your
wireless phone to re-establish call forwarding or press the Cancel
button to extinguish the Forward indicator.

removed without pressing the Cancel button. This alerts you
that the phone is still call forwarded. Simply replace the phone
in the device, press the Cancel button, and the Forward indicator
will extinguish, indicating that call forwarding is deactivated and
you may remove the wireless phone.
• The FastForward device will slowly flash the indicator and
sound a low alert for 5 seconds if there is no Cf1, Cf2, or Cf3
programmed into the wireless phone’s address book – verify
the Cf programming of the wireless phone and verify the position
of the Cf switch on the bottom of the device.
• The FastForward device will flash the indicator in an “On, On,
Off” pattern and sound a high alert for 5 seconds if there is an
issue with the device communicating with the wireless phone or
the wireless network – verify that the wireless phone is turned
on, there is good coverage, there is not an active call, and try
re-inserting the wireless phone.

wireless phone?
A: Up to three devices can be supported for each
wireless phone.
Q: Will my wireless phone ring when placed in FastForward?

indicator is on, the handset will not ring. All incoming
wireless calls will now ring the forwarded number you’ve

the Cancel button, your wireless phone will not ring. Until
the Cancel button is pressed with the wireless phone inserted
into the device cradle, all wireless calls are still forwarded.

the distinctive ring number must be programmed into
