Conairphone tad 1220

SOURCE: Recovering messages

The 1337's User Guide mentions the battery that keeps messages during power failures. I suspect those message were lost when the power went down.

Background: The TAD1220 does not have a way to manually delete messages. It more or less has a FIFO(FIRST IN-FIRST OUT) method of retaining messages. It will save up to 14 minutes of messages and then they are deleted automatically after you play them back and receive another incoming call.

This is important: It will only erase the messages AFTER you have listened to them *AND* received another message.

Exception: If you happen to press the STOP/SAVE button, then all of the messages will be RE-SAVED until the memory limit has been reached.

Extreme Solution:
The only manual way is to remove the battery, disconnect the power cord and erase everything. You will then need to reprogram your greeting.
