Autostart. 
Once tobacco stick specially designed for IQOS ILUMA is correctly inserted, your holder will vibrate to let you know that the SMARTCORE INDUCTION SYSTEM™ has started preheating automatically.

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:

-4 vibrations = 100-75%
-3 vibrations = 75-50%
-2 = 50-25%
-1 = <25%.

You can enable and adjust the vibration modes to suit you, using the IQOS app.
