Get started with IQOS ILUMA.

1

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 sticks.

2

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 two, one or none experiences left in your Holder.

3

Gently insert a tobacco products and tobacco surrogates 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 heatstick and add a new for next time.

Charging your IQOS ILUMA

1

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.

2

When charging your Holder, the two round lights will be pulsing. Two round lights on your Holder means its fully charged for two uses. One round light means you have one use left. Yellow blinking lights indicates your Holder needs a recharging.

3

Remove any tobacco products and tobacco surrogates from the Holder and insert into your Pocket Charger. The two round lights will indicate that your Holder is recharging and remain on, when you have one or two uses available.
