4. Connect Power: Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet.

5. Operating Instructions

Operating your Laurastar Go Plus system for optimal ironing results:

1. Power On: Press the power button. The indicator light will illuminate, and the system will begin to heat up. Wait for the light to indicate readiness (typically stops flashing or turns solid).
2. Steam Ironing: Once ready, place the garment on the ironing board. Press the steam button located on the iron handle to release powerful, continuous steam. Move the iron smoothly over the fabric.
3. Using the Active Board:
   • Blower System: Activate the blower to inflate the ironing board cover, creating an air cushion. This is ideal for delicate fabrics or to prevent creases when ironing over buttons or seams.
   • Vacuum System: Activate the vacuum to hold the fabric firmly against the board. This allows steam to penetrate deeply and helps to set creases precisely, removing excess moisture.
4. After Use: Turn off the system and unplug it from the outlet. Allow the iron to cool completely before storing.

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and performance of your Laurastar Go Plus system.

• Cleaning the Iron Soleplate: After the iron has cooled, wipe the soleplate with a damp cloth to remove any residue. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
• Cleaning the Ironing Board Cover: The cover can be removed and cleaned according to its care label. Ensure it is dry before reattaching.
• Descaling the Steam Generator: Regular descaling is crucial to prevent mineral buildup and maintain steam performance. Refer to the specific descaling instructions provided with Laurastar descaling products.
