See the idea in action
A placed star rules out all eight neighbouring squares. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Read the matching step again.
A common point of confusion
Different rows do not make diagonal neighbours legal. Compare the situation with the worked example. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
