What are the most common problems with IQOS?

 

Two of the most common problems with IQOS devices are:
- Broken heating blade: This part is the heart of the device and the most delicate part. Incorrect use or cleaning can damage it. If the plate has no tip, is twisted or broken, the IQOS will not function perfectly. This is what you should do if you believe that the heating blade is broken.
- IQOS does not turn on: Follow the steps given in the IQOS user guide to reset your device; if it still does not turn on, something has gone wrong. In these cases, we always advise our customers to contact our IQOS Care Team or go to the nearest IQOS Retail Partner.

 

Why buy spare parts for IQOS?

 

All IQOS parts have been manufactured in accordance with high quality and safety standards. Due to the complexity and advanced technology employed, parts like batteries and heating blades are not sold or marketed separately. It is important to consider that IQOS is the result of many years of research with science and technology having come together to create the advanced Heat-Not-Burn technology that can heat the tobacco without burning it, at an optimum temperature that does not exceed around 350ºC.

Due to its advanced technology, IQOS boasts very sophisticated elements by which to ensure its correct function. As it is a long-lasting electronic device, IQOS requires a powerful energy source. Additionally, the heating blade, the very heart of the device, and the Heat-Not-Burn Technology incorporate delicate, sophisticated ceramic components and platinum, silver and gold elements. These types of parts have advanced technology and cannot be changed or handled by the user. In order to guarantee its proper functioning, it is essential that the device is only examined by the official technical service. At IQOS we recommend that you always contact the IQOS Care Team or visit an IQOS Retail Partner in the event of failure or malfunction, where qualified professionals can help you with any issue that may arise with your device.

 

What parts of IQOS can be replaced?

 

Although you cannot replace the technological components of IQOS by yourself, there are some external parts of IQOS that can be changed depending on the model you have. To see which elements can be changed, refer to the accessories section.
