IQOS ILUMA - FAQs

The all-new IQOS ILUMA with TEREA takes heated tobacco to the next level of tobacco enjoyment. Its innovative SMARTCORE INDUCTION SYSTEM™ heats the tobacco from within the TEREA stick, instead of burning it, for an altogether better, cleaner and more pleasurable experience. On top of all that, it continues to emit on average 95% lower* levels of harmful chemicals than cigarettes.
Important information: It does not necessarily equal a 95% reduction in risk. IQOS is not risk-free.
* “95% less” represents the average reduction of the 9 chemicals recommended for reduction in cigarette smoke by the World Health Organization, which does not include nicotine. See Important Information on IQOS.com"

Your IQOS ILUMA works best between 0 - 40℃, and TEREA tobacco sticks taste best when you keep them at room temperature. Here are a few storage tips:
-Keep your device away from water, direct sunlight and heat.
-Don’t leave your device in a hot place like inside a car because the lithium-ion battery and electric circuit board could be damaged, or significantly deteriorated.
-To ensure the best taste and to get the most from your device, we also recommend you avoid exposing your IQOS ILUMA and TEREA sticks to low temperatures for a long period of time.
-Store IQOS ILUMA or IQOS ILUMA PRIME and SMARTCORE STICKS™ in a clean, dry, cool place.
-Do not expose IQOS ILUMA or IQOS ILUMA PRIME and SMARTCORE STICKS™ to high humidity conditions or direct sunlight.
-Do not use SMARTCORE STICKS™ that have been exposed to excessive heat or moisture.
Additional information: In cold outdoor conditions, the device may be able to start if it’s kept warm (e.g.in your coat pocket). Nevertheless, while using the holder, the cold outdoor temperature may lead to:
a. Lower performance of the aerosol
b. Not enough energy to match the (per tobacco stick) designed usage duration (up to 6’ or 14 puffs whichever comes first).

Changing your IQOS ILUMA door cover to suit you is easy. You don’t need tools because the door is conveniently held in place by firm magnets. First, a pivot opens the door of the pocket charger, then you can remove the door cover by pulling it from the sides. To fit a new door cover, align it with the pivoting door and the magnets will pull it into place.
Changing the ring is straightforward, but you’ll need to use the ring removal tool that came with your new ring. Simply fit the tool on the holder ring and turn it anti-clockwise to unlock it. Next, place the new ring onto the holder and use the tool to turn it clockwise to lock it into place.
You can. Open the wrap fully on your device and pull it out, from the top down. Now you can easily remove it from the pocket charger. To attach your new wrap, slide the linear magnets into the same shaped recesses on the pocket charger.
The pioneering SMARTCORE INDUCTION SYSTEM™ in IQOS ILUMA and TEREA completely reinvents the way tobacco is heated. The heart of the new bladeless SMARTCORE INDUCTION SYSTEM™ is an innovative metal heating element placed inside the TEREA stick and coated with stainless steel for seamless heating of the tobacco. This means your tobacco is heated from the core instead of being burned for an altogether better, cleaner and more pleasurable experience. And on top of all that, it continues to emit on average 95% lower levels of harmful chemicals than cigarettes*. Important information: It does not necessarily equal a 95% reduction in risk. IQOS ILUMA is not risk-free.

To reset your device, place the holder in the pocket charger and press the button for 10 seconds, then release. All of the lights will turn OFF, blink twice, and turn on again to confirm a RESET. That’s it, you’re done.
There are couple of ways you can check how many uses you have left. Either on the holder itself or by checking the pocket charger with the holder inside. Here’s how:
Checking on the holder: Tilt the holder towards you or short press the button. The lights will come on and indicate the battery level. When 2 lights are on it means the holder is ready for 2 uses and 1 light on means it’s ready for 1 use only.
Checking on the pocket charger: Short press the side button on the pocket charger with the holder inside the charger. The pocket charger light will turn on. 2 lights mean the holder is ready for 2 uses and 1 light on means ready for 1 use.
Checking the battery level of the pocket charger is easy. Simply short press the side button on the pocket charger. The pocket charger lights will turn on to indicate the battery level:
• 4 WHITE lights mean the battery is fully charged
• 3 WHITE lights mean up to 75% battery life remaining
• 2 WHITE lights mean up to 50% battery life remaining
• 1 WHITE light means up to 25% battery life remaining
YELLOW blinking lights displaying on the holder: This means the battery is depleted and the holder needs to be recharged. It’s pretty fast. IQOS ILUMA holder recharge times are:
• 1’ 50’’ for 0-1 Use*
• 3’ 25’’ for 1-2 Uses*
• 5’ 15’’ for 0-2 Uses*

*Please refer to the battery degradation section.
RED blinking light on the holder: You need to put the holder in the pocket charger and reset the device.
WHITE lights blink twice on the holder: This indicates your IQOS ILUMA is outside its operating temperature range of between >0°C/<40°C.
It’s quick and easy to charge your device but remember, it’s safer to use the power adapter and charging cable designed for IQOS ILUMA. It takes around 135 minutes to fully charge the pocket charger and up to 10 minutes to fully charge the holder for the first time after unpacking. The holder recharge times are:
-1’ 50” for 1 use*
-3’25” for 1-2 uses*
- 5’ 15” 0-2 uses*
-and 10’ 05” for its first charge out of the box*
*Please refer to the battery degradation section.
Yes, but only with the charging cable and power adaptor designed for IQOS 3 DUO generations.
To make your experience easier, IQOS ILUMA is packed full of new advanced features.
Autostart: Once your TEREA stick is correctly inserted, your holder will vibrate to let you know that the SMARTCORE INDUCTION SYSTEM™ has started preheating automatically. When it’s ready to use, the device will vibrate a second time. You can also start heating manually by pressing the side button.
Checking your holder. This smart gesture allows you to check how much battery is remaining in your holder. Simply tilt the holder towards you when you’re not using it, and the lights on the holder will indicate the battery level.
Checking how much experience is left. Double-tap your holder and the vibrations will indicate how much of your experience is left. For instance:

-3 vibrations = 75-50%
-2 = 50-25%
-1 = <25%.
If your IQOS ILUMA doesn't start on its own then please:
• Check that you’re only using TEREA sticks
• Make sure they’re being placed in the right direction in the holder
• Place the holder in the pocket charger and perform a RESET. To do this, press and hold down the pocket charger button for 10 seconds until the lights fade out. The RESET is confirmed when you release the button and all of the lights blink 2 times
• If the holder starts on its own without a TEREA stick inserted then please follow these steps:
• Place the holder in the pocket charger and perform a RESET. To do this, press and hold down the pocket charger button for 10 seconds until the lights fade out. The RESET is confirmed when you release the button and all of the lights blink 2 times

Remember, you can start your tobacco experience manually by inserting your TEREA stick into the holder and pressing the button for two seconds to activate your experience. If it still doesn’t work, call our IQOS store.
The great news is that cleaning the leather wrap is easy. Just grab a damp cloth and wipe it gently.
