Vertical Steaming: Hang the garment on a hanger (refer to Figure 5.2). Hold the iron a few inches away from the fabric and press the steam button. Move the iron up and down the garment to release wrinkles and refresh the fabric. This method is ideal for delicate fabrics, suits, or drapes.
Protective Soleplate: For delicate fabrics like silk or synthetics, attach the included protective soleplate to the iron. This prevents scorching and provides a gentler ironing experience.

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Laurastar Lift Plus.

Emptying the Water Tank: After each use, or before extended storage, empty any remaining water from the tank. Ensure the unit is unplugged and cool.
Cleaning the Soleplate: If the soleplate becomes dirty, clean it with a damp cloth after the iron has cooled down. Do not use abrasive cleaners or metallic scouring pads.
Replacing the Anti-Scale Cartridge: The anti-scale cartridge helps prevent mineral buildup. Replace it when the indicator light signals or as recommended by the manufacturer (typically every few months depending on water hardness and usage). Refer to the cartridge packaging for specific instructions.
Storage: Once the unit has cooled completely, wrap the power cord and steam hose neatly. The compact design allows for easy storage.
