How Does IQOS Device Work?

IQOS is a new way to enjoy the taste of real tobacco: With IQOS, specifically crafted tobacco sticks made with real tobacco (referred to as "HEETS") are heated to a precise temperature range using a patented heating technology (referred to as "HeatControl™ technology").

To use IQOS, the HEETS tobacco stick is inserted into the heating system (holder) and heated by a lithium battery by pressing the holder button. HEETS can be used once the optimal temperature is reached. The duration of use is approximately the same as a cigarette.

Why and When Does My IQOS Device Vibrate?

Your IQOS will vibrate to indicate the current usage status of the device. IQOS 3 DUOS and IQOS 3 Multi device: vibration at the start of heating (as soon as you press the On/Off button on the holder). Two vibrations after that, the device is ready to use. Two more vibrations when the HEETS stick is almost run out (about 30 seconds or 2 puffs before it runs out).

Can I Use HEETS Tobacco Sticks Twice?

No, do not use HEETS tobacco twice. HEETS tobacco sticks have been designed so that the duration of use is approximately the same as a cigarette. Replace finished HEETS tobacco sticks and use new ones.

Is IQOS Water Resistant?

All IQOS devices are not waterproof. Be cautious to avoid getting wet or falling into the water.
