Dive into our video guides on how to take care of your device:
Your IQOS ILUMA has two main components: The Pocket Charger and the Holder. The Pocket Charger is a powerbank for your Holder - and the Holder has a chamber for inserting tobacco and nicotine SMARTCORE sticks.
Charge before use. Press the button on your Pocket Charger for 4 seconds to turn the device ON/OFF.Check the Holder status lights to see if you have any experiences left in your Holder.
Gently insert a tobacco or nicotine SMARTCORE stick to activate Autostart or press the Holder button to start. One vibration and pulsing lights shows it’s heating up. Two vibrations and lights on means it’s ready for use.
Use your IQOS ILUMA. When it gives off two vibrations, your IQOS has 2 puffs remaining. Simply remove the tobacco or nicotine SMARTCORE stick and add a new one for next time.
Tap the Pocket Charger button to check the battery level. If the light strip flashes yellow 3 times, charge your Pocket Charger by using the official IQOS cable and AC power adapter until fully lit.
When charging your Holder, the 2 round lights will be pulsing. 2 round lights on your Holder means it's fully charged for two uses. 1 round light means you have one use left. Yellow blinking lights indicates your Holder needs a recharging.
Remove any tobacco or nicotine SMARTCORE stick from the Holder and insert into your Pocket Charger. The 2 round lights will indicate that your Holder is recharging and remain on, when you have 1 or 2 uses available
Autostart
Your IQOS ILUMA Holder starts preheating automatically after you
insert a tobacco or nicotine SMARTCORE stick. This feature is available by default and can be
disabled through the IQOS app.
Lift up
By lifting up the Holder when you are not in an experience, it will show
how many uses are left by displaying 1 or 2 lights
Double-tap
Simply double-tap your Holder during the use and the device will
vibrate to indicate how much of the experience is left:
3 vibrations: 75-50%
2 vibrations: 50-25%
1 vibration: <25%
Make sure you only use SMARTCORE sticks with your IQOS ILUMA. They are single use so ensure you do not reinsert a used one.
Charging your IQOS ILUMA Pocket Charger on a daily basis is the best way to ensure you can always enjoy your IQOS. Always charge the Pocket Charger with the manufacturer-approved power adaptor.
You can simply enable/disable the smart gestures through the IQOS app and you can also tune certain parameters such as light intensity and vibrations.
*Do not use SMARTCORE sticks with previous IQOS™ generations, as this may cause damage to your device. SMARTCORE sticks contain a metal part. Keep out of reach of children to prevent disassembly or ingestion.
