OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
-
Filling the tank
Before first use, remove all packaging, including the protective cover on the soleplate. Make sure the iron is not plugged in. Set the steam switch to off. Fill the water tank via the filling hole. To fill the tank with the maximum amount of water, we recommend the iron is tilted vertically whilst being filled.
Do not overfill the iron otherwise it will cause leaking from around the filler cap and may run down the iron.
WE RECOMMEND THE USE OF DEIONISED, DISTILLED OR DEMINERALISED WATER.
Never use battery topping up fluid or water containing any substances like starch, sugar, fragrant additives or defrosted water from a refrigerator. -
Charging base
Plug in the charging base and switch on at the mains. The charging base power light will illuminate.
Rest the iron on its heel on the charging base, ensuring that the heel connector meets the charging base connector. Connection is made when the power indicator light on the handle illuminates. Wait until the iron reaches the desired temperature, then commence ironing
Throughout your ironing session, the iron must be replaced onto the charging base every few seconds or whenever you adjust your garments, to keep the heat topped up. -
Temperature Selection
Set the temperature dial to the temperature required (see Temperature Guide’)
The temperature indicator light will illuminate red until the required temperature is reached, then it will turn green.
NOTE: It is normal for the temperature indicator light to flicker between red and green whilst the temperature cycles up and down during charging.
Tip: We recommend the temperature indicator light is allowed to cycle red and green twice before you begin ironing. The temperature indicator light and the power indicator light will switch on and off whilst you are ironing and replacing the iron on the base. -
Switching on the steam
If required, switch on the steam using the steam switch. The amount of steam is automatically adjusted to suit the temperature selected. -
Using the water spray
For stubborm creases, use the water spray button. If using for the first time, you may need to press this a few times to pull the water through. -
Steam boost
Press the steam boost button for an extra steam burst for stubborn creases/ heavy fabrics
NOTE: For optimum steam quality, do not operate the shot more than three times in succession.
FUNCTION
Dry ironing
Your iron can be used for dry ironing. Set the steam switch to off and set the
temperature dial as desired.
You won’t need water in the tank unless using the water spray or steam boost
features.
Vertical steam
Vertical steam is useful for removing creases from hanging clothes, curtains, etc. Hold the iron between 1cm and 2cm away from the item and press the steam boost button.
Anti-drip system
This prevents water escaping from the soleplate when the iron is too cold. During use, the anti-drip system may emit a loud click, particularly during heat-up or whilst cooling down. This is perfectly normal and indicates that the system is functioning correctly.
Anti-scale system
This system reduces scale deposits and helps prolong the life of the iron.
Auto shut-off
If the iron is not taken off the charging base for 8 minutes, the product will automatically turn off for safety and to save energy. When this happens, the power indicator light will flash.
To restart the iron, disconnect the iron from the charging base and replace,
then wait for the temperature to rise again.
NOTE: The appliance is not turned off completely in auto shut-off mode.
To switch the product off, unplug the product from the mains outlet.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Emptying and storing
When you have finished ironing, unplug and empty all water from your iron and set the steam Switch at the oft position. When cool, store the iron on its heel on the charging base with the power cord wrapped loosely around the iron’s heel.
Cleaning the soleplate
Do not use scouring powder or solution as this could cause damage to the coating. If any man-made fibers fuse to the soleplate, set the iron at the MAX position and pass it over a clean piece of cotton to draw the deposit off the surface.
To clean the exterior
Allow the unit to cool and wipe over with a damp cloth and mild detergent, then wipe dry.
Self Clean
Your iron has a built in self-clean system designed to keep the water valve, steam chamber and steam vents clear of lint and loose mineral deposits.
-
Fill the iron with water to the MAX line.
-
Set the steam switch to the OFF position.
-
Connect the charging base to a mains supply outlet and rest the iron on its heel on the charging base.
-
Set the temperature dial to the MAX setting and wait for the temperature to be reached – the temperature indicator light will illuminate red until the required temperature is reached, then it will tun green.
-
Whilst the iron is still very hot, hold the iron horizontally overa sink.
CAUTION: The soleplate will still be hot, so ensure the charging base and plug are kept away from it and sink. -
Press and hold the self-clean button.
WARNING: Steam and boiling hot water will drain from the holes in the soleplate. Keep hands and body away from the hot water. This washes away the scale and minerals that have built up inside the steam chamber -
Whilst still holding the self-clean button, gently move the iron back and forth until the water tank is empty.
-
When steam and hot water cease to be released from the soleplate, release the self-clean button.
-
When the process is complete, re-connect the iron heel to the charging base and allow to heat up – this will dry the soleplate.
-
Disconnect the charging base from the ains supply outlet.
-
With the iron resting on its heel, allow it to fully cool down.
-
Wipe the soleplate with a cold, damp cloth. After this cleaning operation, empty out any remaining after.
IMPORTANT: Do not attempt to descale the soleplate with descaling products.

FAQs
How does a OMAIGA KB-950RV cordless iron work?****
The base of the iron has a cord that connects into a nearby outlet, but the iron itself has no cord. The iron heats back up to the chosen temperature each time you set it back on the base.
How does a OMAIGA KB-950RV cordless iron charge?****
A cordless iron is NOT a device that can be recharged. This iron cannot be used continuously without being plugged into the Power Base, which supplies the electricity needed to heat the soleplate. Every time the iron is put in the Power Base, it immediately re-heats.
What safety precautions should be taken while handling an electric iron?****
Never use an unsupervised iron. When not in use, unplug. Avoid encircling the iron with the power cable while it is cooling. Never let young children or animals hang on the ironing board or pull on the wires; always keep out of the reach of both.
What are the causes of failure in electric iron?****
Fuse could blow: A blown fuse is among the most frequent causes of iron press malfunctions. When the iron press’s fuse burns or blows, it may occasionally lose power completely. This is why it’s critical to find a quick solution.
How long does it take to charge a OMAIGA KB-950RV cordless iron?****
The iron heats up quickly from cold but takes around 15 seconds to cool down since it stays hotter for longer.
What is the advantage of a OMAIGA KB-950RV cordless iron?****
With this kind of iron, you can move around the ironing board without any limits and without constantly flicking a cord out of the way to do this task. The fact that cordless irons are frequently lighter than their corded counterparts is another advantage. This makes them a little bit simpler to use.
How long does OMAIGA KB-950RV cordless iron stay hot?****
It can only hold heat for roughly 45 seconds before returning to the base for recharging. But between uses, it reheats in less than 10 seconds. Although it reheats quickly, some fabrics or quilting require a higher temperature.
Does a OMAIGA KB-950RV cordless iron have a battery?****
Batteries within cordless irons are likely to run out before any other problem arises. Since these batteries are not removable, the iron as a whole will need to be changed more frequently.
How much power does an iron use per hour?****
When heated on high, an iron will consume 800 to 2000 watts, or 1100 watts on average.
Which iron uses less electricity?****
It has been observed that using a dry iron only used 30% of the electricity, even when the temperature was high. For instance, if the iron’s power was measured at 1200 watts, just 0.4 units of electricity were used.
What principle is used in electric iron?****
The idea behind an electric iron is the heating impact of current. According to this theory, heat is produced when an electric current flow through a conductor because of the conductor’s resistance.
Do OMAIGA KB-950RV cordless irons work?****
The watt power of corded irons can undoubtedly be matched by cordless irons. Heat retention is the biggest challenge with cordless irons. As soon as they are taken out of their charging base, the cordless irons start to lose heat gradually. You can discover after about a minute that the iron is not hot enough to get rid of tough wrinkles.
