IQOS ILUMA ONE: Unique and Innovative Design

How to use IQOS ILUMA ONE

Follow these IQOS ILUMA ONE instructions to use your device:

  1. Slide the cap and insert a SMARTCORE STICK™ up to the wavy printed line on the filter
  2. To turn on IQOS ILUMA ONE, press the button for at least one second
  3. The device will vibrate and the lights will flash to notify you that pre-heating has started
  4. When the device vibrates and lights up a second time, it means the experience has begun
  5. When you feel a third vibration and the device starts flashing white light, it means the experience is about the end - with about 30 seconds or 2 puffs left
  6. Remove the stick and wait for it to cool completely before responsibly disposing in your general waste bin
  7. Slide the cap of your IQOS ILUMA ONE closed and store your pocket and all-in-one device wherever you like
