IQOS is a popular gadget created for those who want to get rid of ordinary cigarettes in favor of their more or less useful counterparts. But, since IQOS is an electronic device, it may have problems with operation. How to reboot different versions of IQOS?
How IQOS works
IQOS is an electronic tobacco heating system. Its principle of operation is based on the innovative HeatControl technology. For heating, specialized sticks are used, placed in the system. Within just a couple of minutes, IQOS heats up to 350 degrees, and this temperature will be kept at 350 degrees while smoking.
Due to this principle of action, the tobacco will not burn, as in a regular cigarette, which emits a lot of vapors and harmful substances during the combustion of tobacco.
Precautionary measures
- IQOS is a device for the use of tobacco products, therefore it should not be given to children or allowed to be used by children.
- The gadget does not have any protection against moisture, therefore it is not recommended to take IQOS with wet hands or use the device in the rain.
- It is important to clean the rod holding the stick from time to time. Tobacco residues not only spoil the taste, but also impair the operation of the device.
- The IQOS battery does not tolerate frost, so the indicators may start blinking in frost.
In case of problems with the device, it is advisable to take it to a service center. This is due to the fact that almost all serious problems relate to the firmware or the board.
Operating tips
Here are some tips for using a cigarette:
- Only original sticks should be used. Some companies have learned to competently counterfeit sticks, but they spoil the gadget, even taking into account the low cost.
- To improve smoking, it is worth letting the tobacco warm up properly. Then the first few puffs will be brighter and more intense.
- The device is not suitable for those who want to quit smoking, because the sticks for IQOS also contain nicotine.
- Even if the gadget does not create smoke when using IQOS, there is still a faint smell. Fortunately, it disappears almost immediately. That is why the user can use IQOS both indoors and in the car.
If the user follows the key principles of using the electronic IQOS cigarette, the device can serve him for many years. It may well be that it is the use of this innovative device that will give a person the opportunity not only to maintain health, but also not to lose the pleasure of ordinary smoking.
Reboot IQOS
Due to the fact that IQOS is an electronic gadget, it can sometimes crash, freeze or incorrectly display work processes on the indicator. Therefore, the developers have provided for the function of rebooting the device. In the same first version, it is not difficult to reboot, it is enough to hold together two buttons - "Power on" and "Auto-cleaning of the holder". It is enough to hold down these buttons for 5-6 seconds to reboot the device.
In order to reboot the device of version 2.4 or 2.4 Plus, it is necessary to hold down other buttons - this is the power button and the Bluetooth button. It is worth clamping them for 2-3 seconds. The flashing indicators will indicate that the device is rebooting. In the third version, you must press the button located on the charger. You need to hold it for 8 seconds. As soon as all IQOS lights turn on and start blinking white, the device will reboot.
Rebooting the gadget can come in handy during cleaning or disassembling the device, but it is worth remembering: even if IQOS is working normally, you should still reboot it every 14 days for preventive purposes. Zeroing is most commonly used when the charging or cleaning lights flash red.
In the event that the user for some reason cannot reboot the gadget, or if the indicators do not react in any way to the inclusion of IQOS, it is worth contacting technical support for help by contacting the phone number: 8-800-301-47-67. If the reboot is not performed, and the device is under warranty, you should not disassemble it, but take it to the store where the gadget was purchased.
Otherwise, if everything is done correctly, rebooting the IQOS will not take too much time from the user. The main thing in this business is not to forget that restarting IQOS is a mandatory preventive procedure that must be performed about twice a month.
An important point: in order to check the status and status of the device conveniently, you can install a special IQOS application for your mobile device.
A Few Tips
You need to reboot your IQOS device in several cases:
- Too much tobacco has accumulated in the machine.
- During operation, the user pressed the wrong button.
- The components of your IQOS device are too hot.
- Failure in the firmware or in the software of the device.
In the event that during the reboot of the gadget the device still continues to flash red, this can only mean that the IQOS holder is defective.
Possible causes of malfunction are such things as contamination of the boards with tar, cleaning agents or tobacco oil. This problem is solved in two ways: the IQOS user needs to either seek competent help from the service center employees, or disassemble his gadget right down to the microcircuits on his own.
