5. Operating Instructions
5.1 Powering On and Heating Up
Press the power button. The Laurastar Lift will be ready to iron and steam in approximately 3 minutes.
5.2 Ironing
For traditional ironing on a board, glide the professional iron over your garments. The continuous steam pressure and ultra-fine DMS (Dry Microfine Steam) ensure perfect results on all fabrics and colors in a single movement.
5.3 Steaming Hanging Garments
The Laurastar Lift is also effective for steaming fabrics directly on a hanger. Simply hold the iron near the garment and activate the steam. This is ideal for quick touch-ups or delicate items.
5.4 Textile Purification (DMS Steam)
The Laurastar DMS (Dry Microfine Steam) purifies fabrics by eliminating dust mites, bacteria, and fungi that are resistant to lower temperature washing cycles. This feature contributes to a healthier environment for your textiles.
5.5 Dual-Shut-Off Mode
The appliance features a dual-shut-off mode: a 10-minute auto-shut-off for safety and energy saving, or a continuous-on mode for extended use. Refer to the control panel for mode selection.
5.6 Using the Protective Soleplate
A protective soleplate is included for use with delicate fabrics that require lower heat or no direct contact with the iron's metal soleplate. Attach it to the iron as per the instructions provided with the accessory.
6. Maintenance
6.1 Anti-Scale Filter
The anti-scale filter helps prevent mineral buildup. Replace the filter periodically as indicated by the appliance or when steam output decreases. Refer to the filter packaging for specific replacement instructions.
6.2 Draining the Water Tank
After each use, or before storing for an extended period, empty any remaining water from the tank to prevent stagnation and mineral deposits.
6.3 Cleaning the Soleplate
Allow the iron to cool completely. Wipe the soleplate with a damp cloth. For stubborn residue, use a specialized iron soleplate cleaner, following the product's instructions. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.
6.4 Storage
Thanks to its unique ergonomics, the Laurastar Lift is portable and easy to move around and put away. Ensure the unit is cool and empty before storing. Wrap the cord neatly and store the iron securely on its base.
7. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No steam output | Water tank empty; unit not heated; anti-scale filter clogged. | Refill water tank; wait for unit to heat up (approx. 3 min); replace anti-scale filter. |
| Water leaking from iron | Iron not hot enough; excessive steam use at low temperature. | Allow iron to reach full temperature before use; reduce steam output for delicate fabrics. |
