Overview

The IQOS 3 DUO is a sophisticated tobacco heating system designed to provide an alternative to traditional smoking. It consists of two main components: the IQOS 3 DUO Pocket Charger and the IQOS 3 Duo Holder. The system is engineered for ease of use and portability, allowing users to enjoy tobacco without combustion.

Function Description

The primary function of the IQOS 3 DUO is to heat specially designed tobacco sticks, known as HeatSticks, rather than burning them. This process generates a tobacco vapor, or aerosol, instead of smoke. The device aims to deliver the taste of real tobacco without fire, ash, or the lingering smell of cigarette smoke. The IQOS 3 DUO Holder is the component where the HeatStick is inserted and heated. It contains a heating element that precisely controls the temperature to release nicotine and flavor from the tobacco. The Pocket Charger serves as a portable charging case for the Holder, ensuring it's ready for use throughout the day. The system is designed for two consecutive uses of the Holder before needing to be recharged in the Pocket Charger, hence the "DUO" in its name.

Usage Features

Getting started with the IQOS 3 DUO is straightforward. To turn on the Pocket Charger, the user presses and holds the Pocket Charger Button for 4 seconds. The Holder Status Lights and Pocket Charger Status Light will illuminate slowly, indicating that the device is active. To charge the Holder, it is simply inserted into the Pocket Charger, and the door is closed. The Holder Status Light on the Pocket Charger will then show the Holder's charge level.

Checking the Holder's status is crucial for an optimal experience. This can be done in two ways:

  1. On the Holder itself: Pressing and releasing the Holder Button will activate the Holder Lights. Two lights indicate it's ready for two uses, one light for one use, and no lights mean the Holder is not charged.
  2. On the Pocket Charger: Pressing and releasing the Pocket Charger Button will show the Holder's battery level via the Pocket Charger Status Lights. Two lights mean the Holder is ready for two uses, one light for one use. Additionally, the Pocket Charger Status Lights also indicate the Pocket Charger's own battery level. If the lights blink twice, it's ready for two uses; if it blinks once, it's ready for one use.

To use the IQOS 3 DUO, a HeatStick is gently inserted into the Holder up to the line on the filter, with the filter facing outside. It's important not to twist the HeatStick during insertion, as this can damage the heating element. Once inserted, the user presses the Holder Button to start heating. The IQOS 3 DUO Holder will vibrate, and the Light(s) will pulse white, signaling the heating process has begun. The device vibrates twice to indicate it's ready for use. Towards the end of the experience, the Holder will vibrate twice again, and the Light(s) will pulse white, signaling the last 30 seconds or the last two puffs. After use, the Cap of the Holder is slid upward, and the used HeatStick is removed.

The IQOS 3 DUO also includes quick tips for troubleshooting and status checks. To check the Pocket Charger's battery level, the Pocket Charger Button is pressed and released. The lights will illuminate to indicate the battery status. A reset function is available by pressing the Pocket Charger Button for 10 seconds until the lights fade out. All Status Lights will then turn off, blink twice, and progressively fade in, confirming a successful reset. If the lights blink white twice, it indicates that the IQOS is outside its optimal operating temperature range (0°C-50°C) or that the Holder needs to be inserted into the Pocket Charger with the door closed until fully charged. If a red light blinks, it signals an error, and the user should reset the IQOS 3 DUO. If the red light blinking persists, customer care should be contacted.

Maintenance Features

Proper cleaning is essential for maintaining the performance and longevity of the IQOS 3 DUO. The device comes with an IQOS Cleaning Tool and IQOS Cleaning Sticks for this purpose.

To clean the Holder using the IQOS Cleaning Tool:

  1. Slide the Cap upward and remove it completely from the Holder.
  2. Allow the device to cool down before proceeding.
  3. Insert the IQOS Cleaning Tool into the Holder and rotate it gently. This action helps to dislodge any tobacco residue from around the heating blade.

For a more thorough cleaning, IQOS Cleaning Sticks are used:

  1. After using the Cleaning Tool, insert an IQOS Cleaning Stick into the Holder.
  2. Wipe the inside of the Holder gently with the stick.
  3. It is crucial to avoid touching the heating blade directly with the IQOS Cleaning Stick to prevent damage.

Regular cleaning ensures consistent performance and taste. The USB Type C Cable and Power Adaptor are provided for charging the Pocket Charger, which in turn charges the Holder. The device is designed to be charged indoors using Safety Extra Low Voltage.

The IQOS 3 DUO is compatible with IQOS 3 accessories, ensuring a degree of interchangeability for users who may have previously owned an IQOS 3 device. Customer care resources, including a full user guide and support services, are available online at www.iqos.com and www.iqos.com/careplus. The IQOS Connect App, available on Google Play, offers additional information and engagement features for IQOS users.
