Does the SMARTCORE STICK™ have lower aerosol quality?
- Make sure the SMARTCORE STICK™ wasn't accidentally used twice. Or check that it's not just an individual SMARTCORE STICK™ that isn't fitting properly. Isolated cases of SMARTCORE STICK™ not fitting occur very infrequently and it's almost never caused by a fault in the device.
- Ensure the SMARTCORE STICK™ was inserted correctly as per the user guide instructions.
- SMARTCORE PACK™ should not be stored in an environment which is too humid or too dry. Doing so can have an effect on the aerosol quality.
IQOS ILUMA™ is designed to be used only with SMARTCORE STICK™. Do not use IQOS ILUMA™ and SMARTCORE STICK™ with previous ILUMA™ generations, as this may cause damage to your device. Do not ingest or disassemble SMARTCORE STICK™s. This product contains a sharp metal part which can cause serious injury if swallowed. Keep out of reach of children.
