Luzern transport guest card

So my hotel just sent me a Luzern guest card for my scheduled check in next week.
The card is good for free local transport around zone 10 of Luzern area.
Do I just get on and off the public transport without verifying the pass?? how's that work??
And also....
According to website.. it mentions..
"If you want to travel to other zones, you will need a connecting ticket. This is how you buy your connection ticket at a ticket machine:
Under the heading "Connecting tickets", select the number of missing zones.
Example: You have a subscription for Zone 10 and travel to Engelberg. Select 5 zones (for zones 21, 31, 41, 51, 61)."

So if I want to goto Schwyz, Stoosbahn for Stoos Ridge hike.. that stop is outside the zone 10... how do i buy "connecting tickets?"
thank you...

You just get on a bus, and when requested just show the ticket. In Switzerland you are normally not required to show your ticket to the bus driver (in fact, they do not like to be distracted from driving) ony when a ticket inspector comes.

When goingto Stoos just buy a ticket Luzern - Stoos at the station. You cannot use your Luzern Guest card here, as that is not valid on the IR to Schwyz.
