Heated tobacco tips for beginners
Congratulations! You’ve taken the bold step to ditch cigarettes and go smoke free. You should be proud of yourself. While IQOS is not risk free and provides nicotine which is addictive, switching completely to IQOS is less harmful than continuing to smoke.
Now that you have your first heated tobacco device and are ready to get started, we have a few tips to ensure your experience remains smoke free.
How do you use heated tobacco devices?
To get started, ensure the device is fully charged. Once the IQOS device is charged and ready for use, a HEETS tobacco stick is inserted into the device holder. Be very careful not to damage your device when inserting your HEETS stick. When inserting your tobacco stick, don't twist or force it in.
By pushing the holder button to begin the heating process, a specially designed blade heats the HEETS tobacco stick which produces an inhalable vapour.
Once the experience is over, the used tobacco stick should be removed from the device and disposed of in a bin.
Are heated tobacco devices the same as vaping?
Heat-not-burn devices are very different from vaping devices. Vaping devices use e-liquid while heat-not-burn products replicate the ritual of cigarette smoking, but heats real tobacco to offer adult smokers the real taste of tobacco.
Are HEETS any good?
There is a HEETS flavour just for you. The tobacco sticks brand has a variety of flavours to suit everyone's palate, style and mood. Pick from eight flavours, starting from the bold taste of Russet. Use the handy HEETS flavour advisor to find the perfect variant for you.
Can you smoke HEETS without IQOS?
No, HEETS and IQOS were created as the perfect pair and should only be used together. This ensures you get a satisfactory experience and your IQOS device warranty remains intact. Never attempt to light or use HEETS alone.
